Ok, so I just heard Cunningham's name for the first time while watching tv poker tonight, but I still feel pretty strongly about him. What I found most convincing though about your argument was the fact that you usedthe word, "solipsistic" not once but TWICE. Very impressive, Wonder Boy! <BR/>As to the real issue at hand, in terms of metaphysics, we are not here constantly, but are, in fact, constantly blinking in and out of existance, creating the possibility of an alternate reality. Or more than one alternate reality perhaps. So the real question, I think, is if I am somewhere else, will Alan Cunningham be there too? Wishful thinking, some may say, but I feel certain that he is. At the risk of exposing my own fragile grip upon sanity, I will aver my own opinion. I believe that there is a joint consciousness or a universal oneness that crosses the borders of space and time making us all one being sharing lifetimes of experiences. However, because this is so frightening, we (and by "we" I am referring to me, you, and yes, of course, Mr. Cunningham) engage our sense of rationalization, perhaps the almighty tool of self defense, to convince us beyond all, or at least most, doubt, that we are all independent, free-thinking human beings. Just a million coincidences, right? Another deja- vu, right? Uh huh, keep dreamin, pal, cuz that's all this is. One long dream.
