I've been thinking a lot about this polytopia without offering any of the thoughts, so here, for whatever they're worth, are some of them. Mind work in the old world: Scenario One: Each mind walks into a room on two legs, they chose a seat and take out a pad and a pencil. Everytime someone offers an idea it's written down on a white...
