Do you go to the Singer/Songwriters Showcase in Nashville in July? Do you know

Lynne Gibson?

Sorry I do not. I make a point of staying away from public events as much as possible.

When you mentioned singer/songwriters come to your home, I thought you might

have heard of her.

Thanks - no I haven’t. There is such an abundance of talented people in Nashville. We are blessed. But i always love hearing about other musicians.

The website didn't work. Just type in Lynne Gibson Project in search. She's on

Facebook also with same name.

Yes. Too true. Another way of saying this is one of by favorite quotes:

“Those unaware of their history are like wind in the Buffalo grass.”

Thanks for the shoutout, KW. Interestingly, just as Substack sent notice of your piece my way, I was writing a few paragraphs about evil in my upcoming essay on artificial intelligence. It was Jungian synchronicity par excellence! At the very moment I thought to myself, "do I really want to darken up this otherwise lovely piece with a nod to evil," your very informative piece on the imposition of evil arrived. So now I really have no choice. Thanks!

Thank you so much for letting me know. I am thankful the ideas which are occurring to me are a part of the bond we have as human beings and of things like Jung’s recognition of the unconscious mind we all share in.

I thought of that also and recoiled at first in mentioning evil. But the recognition that evil is what we are ruled by led to my feeling compelled to acknowledge it.

To synchronicity!
