  1. Coulter is SOOOO full of shit! She thinks she's a genius political analyst! But, this isn't a GAME, lady! She thinks she's clever enough to play politics--most politicians were born with that opinion of themselves! She doesn't think in terms of what is good for government structure and procedure. She's busy figuring out how to capitalize and aggrandize herself...like a good little narcissist...

  2. Ah, yes, the purpose of life. I've worked on this idea for a long time...We are frozen in a cosmic moment of recognition/realization belonging to the Primordial Void, that chaos of all-potential that provides the backdrop of existence. It recognized the impossible: repetition in the state of the Void. Being utterly chaotic, only random organizational states should be possible. But the impossible happened: all tied up in this instantaneous recognition are principles of "reflection", then "memory", then "multiplicity/unity", then BANG, God is born, from an error in cosmic nature, a mistake that explained itself in terms of "time". WE and our entire existence IS the process of experiencing to resolution this frozen stare-down of the Void and God, as they grapple with the incongruous state of recognition precipitated by the error. Time was the invader; it had to be...contained. Existence IS its container. We are an integral part of the resolution of this cosmic error. Energy pre-exists; matter is a highly persistent state of energy. The persistence arises as temporality affects energy, trapping it in molasses, as it were, damping its dynamics. The solution would seem to be something along the lines of redeeming/educating the immature energy that is most susceptible to capture by time. In the moment that all energy is unaffected by time, the physical universe will cease to exist, and the cosmic error will stand corrected. This cosmic maturation process is the purpose of ours and all existence--but NOT selfishly, not for our own benefit, but for the benefit of the Void. But with the cosmic error corrected, there's still no going back; no going back to an insensible Void comprising the totality of existence. In some form or manner or other, we're "here" to stay: "Time" is going to have to be incorporated into the style of the ongoing unfolding. No physical universe of time run amok, but gradated dimensionality, to serve the purpose better. The Universe evolves as Time challenges Its Containment. There's a lot of potential in this fun little description for further exposition. But this is the short of it.

  3. Yep, good old competition should fix things up just fine, while seeing facebook lose %70 of its membership to alternative competition, large, and small. The big soc nets have shot themselves in the collective foot: as long as they served everyone equally there was little reason for competition to arise and develop. Now the search for alternatives has taken hold. Competition will rise and the big soc nets will fall. "Isn't it ironic?".

  4. "Spin off avatars of yourself...", while essentially correct, does not describe the EXPERIENCE of conversing with yourself. If you look carefully behind the speaker's words, you can identify the speaker as your internalization of a person from your life experience. We internalize everyone, and everything, and interact with those internalizations. We imbue these internalizations with authority (as they represent our best perceptions of the universe). Intelligent and enlightened, we utilize consultation with these authorities as an executive would utilize his personnel resources; unenlightened, we may attribute agency to these phantom authorities, resulting in feelings of being driven, or out of control, or at the mercy of one's own psychology.
