The kennings, which *look like* left-brain simulations of right-brain functions, did serve to remind me to recall to us left-brainers that the ideal in lujvo has always been not definitions but telling metaphors. Comments back in the exchanges about computer terminology suggested that this ideal had been lost (yet again -- though the previous deviations did not generally survive). pc
