And while I know what berries to eat you'll be poisoning yourself because you are relying on your "instinct" what is the problem with men and directions?[/quote] bah. What's the fun in taking directions. Ad libitum, experiment, make mistakes and grow in wisdom and knowledge For my non-religious book I'm leaning towards Moby D ick. I just started reading it again, and for me nothing compares. I could spend the rest of my life on my Desert Island writing a commentary on it. Of course, I'd have to design a pen from what nature would provide me. Maybe still a feather from a bird, or use a fish bone for my stylus and extract die from flowers for my ink. Good times.

TotusTuusMaria Posted May 8, 2009 Share Posted May 8, 2009 pride comes before the fall, kafka. my pen would be so much better then anything your "instincts" could come up with. it took man and his "instincts" more then 1,880 years to produce... more really considering man was around for decades upon thousands before Christ and still couldn't, for the life of their instincts, come up with the modern pen.
