[QUOTE="HardRightEdge, post: 722260"] Ah! A student of philosophy! You must have played in the Pac 12! ;) In my student days, for some reason I found poetic expression of Hegel's historical dialectic in the following lines from Yeats: "Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer" Of course, the rest paints a different picture: "Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed tide is loosed, and everywhere The ceremony of innocence is drowned; The best lack all conviction, while the worst Are full of passionate intensity." The point being, in a stream of consciousness kind of way, this Yeat's stanza reminds me of recent Packer defenses. Yeah, that's right, LOL. All I can say (well, certainly not "all" ;)), is the widening defensive gyre better start narrowing, the falcons' swirls start climbing up and stop spinning down, and the falconer and his falcons get on the same page.
