Sure you do. Don't I have the freedom to express amusement at creative
spelling? So, is "Nicq" your complete first name or is it short for

Discovering boundaries and illusions is a worthy goal, very extropic, IMHO,
but I don't see how simultaneously believing everything and nothing will
help. It doesn't even make sense to me.
