Trimming off the rest of this post is unnecessary.
I will guarantee anonymity except in cases of blatant abuse.
I will achieve anonymity by tallying the results in
uncorrelated tabulations and then deleting the emails.
(I know this loses interesting correlation data, but if
resondents want anonymity it's hard to avoid.)
I know that this anonymity promise depends on trust and that
you have no particular reason to trust me. Someday, I hope.
I will post results Saturday.

me to India; in India I can pick up other luggage."
He looked relieved, "Ah! So you have other luggage, in
India? Then that is all right."
I smiled to myself as I thought, "The only time I have
trouble in entering or leaving a country is when I do it
legally, when I have all the papers Red Tape demands."
Life aboard the ship was dull, the other passengers were
very class conscious and the story that I had brought "only
one case!" apparently put me outside the range of human
society. Because I did not conform to the snobbish norm I
was as lonely as if I had been in a prison cell, but with the
great difference that I could move about. It was amusing
to see other passengers call a steward to have their deck-
chairs moved a little further away from me.
We sailed from the port of New York to the Straits of
Gibraltar. Across the Mediterranean Sea we steamed,
calling at Alexandria, and then going on to Port Said,
steaming along the Suez Canal to enter the Red Sea. The
heat affected me badly, the Red Sea was almost steaming,
but at last it came to an end, and we crossed the Arabian
Sea to finally dock at Bombay. I had a few friends in that
city, Buddhist priests and others, and I spent a week in
their company before continuing my journey across India
to Kalimpong. Kalimpong was full of Communist spies and
newspaper men. New arrivals found their life was made a
misery by the endless, senseless questioning, questions
which I never answered but continued what I was doing.
This penchant of Western people to pry into the affairs
of others was a complete mystery to me, I really did not

in their order in submitting this particular will to the primary will which
governs the whole body. Apart from that, they are in disorder and mischief;
but in willing only the good of the body, they accomplish their own good.
476. We must love God only and hate self only.
If the foot had always been ignorant that it belonged to the body, and that
there was a body on which it depended, if it had only had the knowledge and
the love of self, and if it came to know that it belonged to a body on which
it depended, what regret, what shame for its past life, for having been
useless to the body which inspired its life, which would have annihilated it
if it had rejected it and separated it from itself, as it kept itself apart
from the body! What prayers for its preservation in it! And with what
submission would it allow itself to be governed by the will which rules the
body, even to consenting, if necessary, to be cut off, or it would lose its
character as member! For every member must be quite willing to perish for
the body, for which alone the whole is.
477. It is false that we are worthy of the love of others; it is unfair that
we should desire it. If we were born reasonable and impartial, knowing
ourselves and others, we should not give this bias to our will. However, we
are born with it; therefore born unjust, for all tends to self. This is
contrary to all order. We must consider the general good; and the propensity

judge of its perfection by simply reading it; for we see that it has
provided for all things with so great wisdom, equity, and judgement, that
the most ancient legislators, Greek and Roman, having had some knowledge of
it, have borrowed from it their principal laws; this is evident from what
are called the Twelve Tables, and from the other proofs which Josephus
gives.
But this law is at the same time the severest and strictest of all in
respect to their religious worship, imposing on this people, in order to
keep them to their duty, a thousand peculiar and painful observances, on
pain of death. Whence it is very astonishing that it has been constantly
preserved during many centuries by a people, rebellious and impatient as
this one was; while all other states have changed their laws from time to
time, although these were far more lenient.
The book which contains this law, the first of all, is itself the most
ancient book in the world, those of Homer, Hesiod, and others, being six or
seven hundred years later.
621. The creation of the deluge being past, and God no longer requiring to
destroy the world, nor to create it anew, nor to give such great signs of
Himself, He began to establish a people on the earth, purposely formed, who
were to last until the coming of the people whom the Messiah should fashion
by His spirit.
622. The creation of the world beginning to be distant, God provided a
single contemporary historian, and appointed a whole people as guardians of
this book, in order that this history might be the most authentic in the
world, and that all men might thereby learn a fact so necessary to know, and
which could only be known through that means.
623. Japhet begins the genealogy.
Joseph folds his arms, and prefers the younger.
