Epicurus makes no sense. Atomism is doubly confusing because it feels to me like they were on the right track and then got off somewhere and I'm sitting here thinking, "yeah, yeah, yeah...hold on, what now?"
On the other hand it's kind of fun. In a scholarly way. And although the book is sometimes dull, any authors who writes "does it really make sense to say that one set of atoms experiences another set as red, solid and extended?" gets my vote. Also he uses billiard balls and cabbages to illustrate points.
Odyssey going okay, though. Odysseus really is fabulously cool, you know.

On the other hand it is a full moon tonight. Necessary before I sleep: Go outside and look at moon. Werewolves having fun running about in pack, and I'm not. Grrrrowl. Why haven't I got that set of genetics?

(Hehe. I kept reading about cabbages in my philosophy book and I kept thinking of Remus. Har de har. Shoebox has invaded my brain.)

You, m'dear, are a virus. I have now read every. bloody. word. of your beloved Shoebox.
Oh, and are you sure it was just the cabbages making you think of Remus? You WERE just speaking of a Full Moon.
No, not that kind.
And Greeks are often "on the right track" and then get off it. They are masters at that.
Ta.

HAHA! And do you like it? Do you?(nudge nudge wink wink ad nauseam)
Well, I'd forgotten about the full moon when I was reading about cabbages.
