| 11 | I do not rank surveys, except they are identical in their inner significance, but just different as to the selection of their vocabulary. | What are your criteria for ranking surveys here as 'good'? |
| 12 | Thanks to all of you, for all that sympathetic interest, which - for me - needed not consist in agreement, but in any sincere application of some slice of mental attention. I have heard from peope, who I do think play that above script rather thoroughly,as a sort of friendly advice (when concerning others to be dealt with, of course): "pretend yourself being a fool, in order to escape their control and control them" - or something similar. What I wanted to say was that even people who - as an intentioned "friend" or "colleague", but having adopted that script - will apply it, at a moment you less would expect, against you ... Therefore, the survey was intended to try lining out that very "script"-context, more than isolated personal impressions. Forgive me those who would have felt rather inclined to immediately jump to other topics. I think that is fine enough. I am not the big "Zampano" at surveys, but still a good-willing principiant. On the other hand, I have tried to formulate a really complicated mixture of experience (nevertheless experience by me) which I would rather not consider just punctual, nor exclusively subjective. Your statements have apported a - gratefully acknowledged - contribution. I liked the verbete "paranoia", used by some, because I am aware that this just could be a rather specific paranoia of mine. In this case I should have to admit however, it be just a very tenace one, as at least I do consider it somehow vital, perhaps as much as others do respect their claustrophobies. I would not decline the possibility either, that I, myself, have been fomenting such contexts, by specific psychodynamic configuration of my "brain box", turning out everything - in such a case - just as my personal problem. But even then - as much as it would be one's own problem, when he felt things in a way, others would just consider some sort of pretty flourishing phantasy. Some of you, however, against whom I would not be allowed (as against myself, kindly speaking) to apply the same psychologically doubting context, do have agreed and given me som noticeable comfort by that. | "I do not understand this; Perhaps I am too stupid for it!" Have you ever heard this, knowing that the person was lying, and just wanting to humiliate you ? |
| 13 | Wick - I am no Kristal Rose! Nevertheless I am fascinated by your suggestion to have several personalities. Upon virtuality that seems to me quite smart: but - believe me - I am not the one who comes around in the very same place under different personalities. Maybe in a chatroom to talk some crazy words, I could imagine run under a different personality - if the latter be just sufficiently circumscibed as seems - which would make sense in times we are living. Anyhow - (jump/look ...) Jody - you are smart. If I had an airplane-ticket to Europe under sweepstake-glamour, it would be yours ... Anyhow, feel yourselves at ease, I may be hysterical, paranoic and even schizothymic (I am afraid of becoming schizophrenic, because of your multy-identity discussion - which could make me cross the borderline). Just joking, but any joke is a try to cry ... Thanks Seven (capital S for person). By the way - I am not offended. Who goes to discussion stand he well the percussion ... | "I do not understand this; Perhaps I am too stupid for it!"

| 14 | I have met a lot of therapists in social context, but have never had the opportunity of undergoing therapy. There has been a lot of dialog, instead, concerning psychological topics. In my unconscious I have always tried to get gratis-therapy, just by interrogating such people about topics that interested me. Quite a dilettantal living together with profes- sionals that (not in Europe I am from!) figure on many a visit card. | How helpful do you consider psychotherapy to be? |
| 15 | I would rather not stop working the way I am doing at present, as the condition above implies in such violent control on wasting and justifying waste, so that there would have to be a "freedom sphere" wherein I could exist, and do everything (saving or wasting, doing this or that), and staying the same, free man, I have always tried to be. On the other hand, I would never decline such fluxus of nice and welcome money, but waist it thorough- and daily, for my own necessities and those of others (without giving the money itself - as, trickily, forbidden!), and would have on that enough help by family members in always "burning" today's gift for any good purposes (e.g. food and scholarship for poor people, educational stuff and services, etc.). So that I would just be some sort of administrator of a kind of funds, but having the pleasure, anyway, of benefitting myself from it, and (!!) saving up my own money, free from benefitters' audition. | Someone gives you $86,400 every day. How long would you last? |
| 16 | I am not a descendant from the founding fathers of chewing-gum. Therefore I smoke instead (more pipe than cigarets)and use sniff-tobacco in the morning and evening (mostly in the bathroom) as a sort of cleaning off negative mesmeric charges. | Chewing gum! |
| 17 | I try living every day as a sort of preparation for death - which, according to my opinion, just means perpassing through a door into (and onto) another reality; consequently, growing older seems to me as being the most positive experience of having lived out, consciously, one more slice ot temporal existence. | Are you more frightened by the thought of dying or the thought of growing old? |
| 18 | I am not the one who could not even do harm to a fly (or even a moth which eats up my books!); but just who respects and always will try to help human life quality. Imagine, when meditating and staying in "alpha", having a fly sit on your nose; that could "kill" you, for the intensity of the feeling in such a resonance phase ... | When there is a fly, wasp or moth in your house, what do you normally do with it? |
| 19 | If this happens in a real friendship, it might significate its death. If there has to be given money for humanitarian purposes - give it, do not loan it; you would be menaced to lose your money - with the friend. By-the-way, I think in nowaday's society, friends are good enough to help each other onto the right BANK - as their job is loaning money, not a friend's. | What are your feelings on loaning money to friends? |
| 20 | Sue - for some I am transatlantic, for some just atlantic, depends on the viewing point. But imagine me rather to the South ... And any other place, except norther of North would be fine. America is fine, too, in case it is of all of us ... Kind regards Timo P.S.: I remember Bee Maya, when I read your name. I liked it as a child, and I am not quite sure, how far I have come since then ... | What are your feelings on loaning money to friends? |
