I'm occasionally mildly suspicious there's nothing but symbols, some of which have what I've occasionally called their "reality bit" set.

For example, we say we're "conceived", and that there's more than one meaning to that word, formulate (again, conceive..) a dualistic split between "body" and "self"....

Kinda makes me wonder (i.e. conceive even more)....
