To be a verb is to deny the stagnation of fixed state. I like it.

Hey, I can't argue with that, especially after Nadia's description of
the Freeland event. With such art among us, even blinkered scientific
types like me will see the light I expect, in the fullness of time.
I look forward to it. The only horizons worth having are those that
expand. The end of the rainbow is the right metaphor.

Onwards!

Rich.
