ok, so, what i am writing here is determining what you're going to respond. it is the local proximate cause of what you are about to say. on the tip of your tongue, your clever witticism begins to take shape, until you ask yourself, "wait! do i want to be clever, as he says?" and then decide to open the field. scanning your knowledge of the brain, you begin down a path of electrochemical cascading interactions including activation of your speech and listening networks that simulate conversation and are part of the experience of an unshareable zone called subjectivity. you read that one more time, take a sip, blink. the pinball falls from the precipice.

okay, so what are the results?
