Hello Mitchy. 

Perhaps our ways of thinking about this subject are in greater alignment than the misalignment that you identified in your reply to my recent message. On a personal level, after making innumerable attempts to get through (to break the brain-lock) and getting nowhere, I gave up. On a personal level, years ago, I recognized the futility and gave up wasting my time. 

I publicly directed my message to EyesOpen and others who have made fewer attempts than me talking to the wall and banging their heads against it. Buried in my verbiage is the central idea; I’m not against others trying to do what I resolved, long ago, not to try anymore myself. Without doubt, there are other people who are better communicators or are more talented or have greater imagination than myself. 

I identified the task at hand for those who want to give it a shot. There is a heavy object stuck in the mud. I haven’t the strength to move it. Even though I’m pessimistic, others keep trying from time to time. I’m not saying everybody (on a personal level) should give up as I have. I’m just informing people how heavy the object is (which I learned from hard experience) and in what direction the object needs to be pushed (if there are people out there who cannot resist the challenge and cannot stop themselves from jumping into the mud).
