acepilot, perhaps a better word choice might be comprehension. No one wants to do a search in order to understand the point and diction of a thread. Welcome to A2K, however. Why don't you cite examples of exactly what you mean, and we will try and respond.

You're right, Frank. Cyracuz has gotten esoteric, and it must be the weather. Did you know that Fresco is a wonderful poet? Wish he would do more of that.

No, when it comes down to it... it's basically all about accepting.

What I mean by rearranging is just that when we try to understand something it very often involves modifications of what we understand from before.

Sometimes learning something new forces us to revise old knowledge, at times even discard it completely.

Sorry for the word choice. "Search", was it really that complicated. I made it kinda general on purpose, didn't think it would stir this up...

I understood what y'all said, the reply of lack of understand was a joke geez Very Happy . In a thread about understanding, I state there is a lack there of. Good golly miss molly, maybe I should of made a "misunderstanding thread" huh?

I got the joke. At least I thought the remark was funny, though I admit that I didn't think you were funny on purpose. Sorry.

My elaboration was more a response to Frank's remark that I'm getting foggy, and Letty's remark that I've become esoteric.

I don't want to get all cryptic on you guys.

I am currently exploring some ideas that are rather enigmatic to those who have not pursued that particular line of thought for some time...
