This post is really for A.C. and for others who don't like my use of (abuse of) "".
The problem with words is that they are wrong. The best that one can do is to circle around certain ineffable concepts, but anything you write is of necessity incomplete.
It is so easy to delude oneself and others, once one draws incomplete conclusions and then lets our pariedolic brains fill in the wrong blanks.
The best one can do is to point...but using "" is a bit lazy and deceptive in its own way.
For example, i know exactly what the so-called control loop is. But it would take a lot of words to describe and I'd lose my audience by the end of the first page.
I need to write that@!#!×÷= book.
Then i can retire with a fully clear conscience.

I never really give this experience much thought, it does surface now and again...especially if I read of something along similar lines. A few years before that happened, as I walked home from the local library, a guy in a car tried to get me into it by offering me a lift. I told him I only lived across the road but he still insisted that I should get in the car. I ran away, turning around after a few seconds only for there to be no car in sight. The car was pointing in the direction I was heading...the man himself was normal, wearing a hat and had a thin moustache, quite angular in his face.
I never told my parents because I was scared.
I was about ten or eleven years old at the time.
