However, I meant to say "allude", as in his question indirectly references a deeper philosophical question. As opposed to "elude", which would be saying that his question is evading the deeper philosophical question, which I suppose one could argue.Gustavhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05316458340368681169noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3371351138596055444.post-66271772755052030902010-07-09T09:41:10.530-07:002010-07-09T09:41:10.530-07:00Ha, wonderful analysis.
