Wondering about 'It'
-
Some time left for the car to come as I embark on the first leg of interactions and dakshin bharat darshan to gauge how well those 'doodles in my notebook' and and 'coloured specks on my computer simulation model' work in reality... some time left to write something :-).

Have you ever wondered how this entire game (the game we're playing here as we live) would appear to somebody (or something) totally disconnected. Would 'it' stand in awe or laugh at our folly. (Don't jump to the conclusion that I'm talking about ETs, shelter a human till he reaches maturity and then expose him to the world and you're doing 'almost' the same thing....if you can erase the 'generational' notions as well it'll work even better) .
It would be an 'it' right... all these notions, biases, prejudices, breakthroughs are our just our creation. And saying that that the perception would depend on 'it's' intelligence is again controversial because most of our intelligence itself is shaped by our surroundings either during our life-time or over the life times of generations.
It's sometimes good to think of yourself as that 'it'; helps you see the world from a new perspective, helps you see many 'obvious' and 'unobvious' things....
