So, Richter, Goddamn Reactor 106 Threw Its Agitator Again.

[Doktor Howl]

Dok, you know this human thing is cyclical. And you know we are all still monkeys, even with our Discordian tendency to walk upright.


That's all I've got.

Oh, sure.  But what the hell are we here for, if not to build a better monkey?

Because the ones we have aren't working right.

Are you suggesting Transhumanism?

I like to think of it as transcendentalism for philosophical materialists.

I just call it "Being a biped."

[Jasper]

I'd call it that too, but the Doctoral review board in my head keeps calling it "too literary".

[Doktor Howl]

I'd call it that too, but the Doctoral review board in my head keeps calling it "too literary".

Ah, see, I think like a maintenance man.  Keep it simple.

[LMNO]

We are all Ahab.

This needs to be a T-Shirt.

Suu?  You've got a cafepress account.  Care to do the honors?

I think I'm okay with that.

[Richter]

We have to walk before we can presume to teach crawling.

[The Good Reverend Roger]

Bump for use elsewhere.

[Pergamos]

I loved this.

I wanted to point out what looks like a missing word. 

And sometimes it's a little deeper.  How often can your basic assumptions of how the world (and the people on it) operatesbe challenged, and still give a shit about whether or not it functions at all?  Or even worse, how long before you protect your ideological territory by wrapping yourself in a belief system, and not allowing yourself or anyone else to question it?  It's a lot of work to get yourself out of that trap, and most people aren't willing to do it.

What I put in in bold seems to complete the sentence in the way I think it was meant.  If I am misinterpreting, or just missing something I apologize.

[Richter]

Where WAS I three years ago?  Where am I now?  Why in fuck couldn't I spell?
