David, what I have written in this thread was pretty much all included in "Interpretation", but that paper went through about 16 drafts, and with each draft it became smaller and more compressed, it was intended for a general readership, and on a superficial level that is what it finished up as, but to really understand what I wrote a lot of background knowledge was required. Based on the feedback I've received on "Interpretation", I'm inclined to believe that only one person other than myself really understands what I have written.

So, will you please accept my apologies for my failure to write in a sufficiently complete way.

Well Alan, i neither believe that you owe me an apology nor that you've expressed yourself poorly in "Interpretations", which i've read more than once. As i stated, this information was not new to me, i was just capable of understanding it in a deeper sense this time around due to how you have expressed it on this thread. Like a puzzle piece suddenly snapping into place.
