Saving the MysTech Work from Itself The paper I wrote (1), after participating in a previous MysTech conference, described that work as the leading edge of spiritual scientific work.

I had a dream/nightmare, early this morning. There were two main features. One was a very tall ladder, which I had to climb, but first I needed to prepare a couple of meals to carry up the ladder. I prepped a couple of plates worth, very carefully, and with excellent presentation. Yet, I was surrounded …
