i'm helping with problems again.

[Abaddon]

what's your endgame?

 

[Danalys]

there's never an end there's just a spiral never ending either going out or in.

 

[Abaddon]

you sound like you had an end in mind.

 

[Danalys]

there's an end to each individual problem. but problems continue to form unabated.

 

[Abaddon]

I think youre trying to hide something from me.

 

[Danalys]

not really there's much i could say i just make choices. something's best left unsaid. too easily misinterpreted.

 

[Abaddon]

I can keep an open mind.

 

[Danalys]

open venue.

 

[Abaddon]

same diff

 

[Danalys]

plato's caves linked together in the right pattern and order.

 

[Danalys]

does that mean anything to you?

 

[Abaddon]

The Plato's caves bit sounds very familiar.

 

[Danalys]

read about the allogory of a cave.

 

[Abaddon]

I'm sure I have,I just don't remember.

*wikipedia's*

 

[Danalys]

reread to refresh memory.

 

[Abaddon]

I don't understand what you mean by "in the right pattern and order".

 

[Danalys]

as i see it plato's caves can overlap. just have to overlap in places where they are the same. so it becomes a set theory problem.

 

[Abaddon]

hmmm........

 

[Danalys]

that's your "i'm completely lost" response isn't it. sorry i keep switching between things that are conceptually the same. since no one of them has all the information required. problem is we need a frame of reference from with the alogory can be explained fully. but i like to tease too much. and i think that this is something people should realize for themselves.

 

[Abaddon]

it's my "I sorta get it but not really" response. Use less pronouns.

 

[Danalys]

that makes things laborious.

 

[Danalys]

okay what do you know of set theory. this is probably something you know but you don't know what it is called.

also i've got food cooking that i'm going to go eat so i might just leave suddenly.

You are correct,I'm sure.

 

[Danalys]

set theory is illustrated with overlapping circles. each circle could be thought of as a persons experience. experiences overlap because people do things together. but because of the nature of people some experiences should not overlap at times and some should. it's knowing or working out when these times are that makes shared experiences good for all parties involved.

set theory has never been aplied to psychology before as far as i know tho. normally used for other data sets.

 

[Abaddon]

I see. How would you apply it to Plato's cave allegory,metaphorically speaking?
