Re: Theos-World U Must Comply (rules the fools)

Mauri:

Yes, I think you have used enough, and even better, you have the
punctuation in the correct places.

Sometimes I think you might need a more subtle language than English,
though. I notice your use of the two words with similar meanings,
separated by a slash, as though the grossness of English did not have
the correct shading of meaning to express your thoughts.

HPB said somewhere that Sanskrit was a more subtle language, with many
more shadings of meanings than English has, but of course, if you
wrote in Sanskrit, few here would be able to understand, so I guess we
are all stuck with English.

I had not seen that method of conveying a need for shadings of
meanings before I saw your usage of it, - a unique approach.

Perhaps it is an attempt at poetry, which I don't dig at all!
