Okay then Amos..........I can see, operating on the assumption I exist, that you have a point although I am completely unclear as to what it might be, if in fact it is. To paraphrase another philosopher for a title to this match, Bill D. suggested "Being and Nuttiness." This of course has potential as from it we can derive that being may possibly be assured through nuttiness and that, being the case, the case for being is made. It seems to be made of balsa rather than rosewood but that does allow for an incredible lightness of being (all that buildup for that sorryass punchline).

We can now move forward and explore the possibilities of being as a mandate in which man as a species is thus endowed with specific traits which make him seek out others even though they may be less well endowed than himself........you for instance. This herd instinct in recent years has marked the decline of man as a power for good in his three dimensional world and has forced his thinking and therefore his very being to embark on futile endeavors and lost causes, such as renovating downtown Cleveland or searching for great truths in the collected ramblings of Strom Thurmond. This decline of the human mind again offers proof of being, although it's tenure may be as short as case of beer on the square in Tupelo, Mississippi.

In these ventures, the nuttiness is obvious and being as a concept takes on a reality that we can then say is real. What part of it that is real is open to interpretations of reality which sadly relies on truth as a real and the real truth is that perception of truth and reality is more subjective than the description of a toad fart and likewise depends upon the proximity to the reality and the angle of view to the truth......or the distance of your nose from the toad fart. Our first problem in exploring this line of thought is to analyze the logic and to do that we have to agree on the angle of view, the mutual proximity to the reality, and whether or not toads do indeed fart.

I will concede for purposes of this argument that our mutual beings are within the spectrum of reality and truth mentioned above, whatever it was, and I now leave it to you to call up a deductive proof source regarding toad farts, ie, "I fart, therefore I hop."
