Hello again, RP.

The hard part isn't putting things into book form, but to go through all your information is quite a task.

I'm sure you're rather busy now, but just wanted to ask now that I'm thinking about it if the diagrams are okay as-is or if they can be depicted a bit more clearly. Not a big deal, just a thought as I go through your stuff. Actually, if the fonts can be altered as well, the work can be saved in picture form so it would be easier to manipulate in a pdf.

Another option, which would be the best imo nowadays, is to make a video of yourself, if even using a webcam, explaining your ideas maybe with you at a chalk board so you can convey points by pont as you go. Alot more people - "they say" - prefer to watch a video than to read, which is a bit unfortunate for the brain.

At any rate, you can even have both out there and I would help to promote them through a friend I have who knows alot about advertising kind of stuff.

Best of luck, whatever you decide, RP. I'll agee to giving the book or video a good review, because after much thought my thoughts and theory are wholly unrelated.

Lemme give your unexpectedly generous suggestions and alternatives some thought, Nobody.

Presently my general concern is abbreviation of text material.

I understand what you mean about some folks preferring to see a video or webcam presentation, but if not done professionally, the approach could subtract from the objective. I'm a little hesitant about featuring myself with the material (though I have been described as 'photogenic').

Austin may be persuaded to enhance and improve upon with sharper images - and maybe even add to - some of the illustrations? Some of the accompanying handwriting with the illustrations could certainly stand some upgrading.

Inexpressible thanks to you and Austin.

With your offer of a promoter I nearly fell off the floor, you see, I've never engaged in this sort of thing before, but, yes, apparently, it could be easily done. - Bob Dylan, paraphrased. P.S. Thanks to you too, dear Michael.

Hi Nobody, Austin, Michael, and All attending party animals:
Much appreciate your suggestions, help and encouragement.

I'm not really set up with the proper hardware to do a video, and then there's the factor of professionalism of audio-visual presentation that I'm not too swift in. Kinda like 'stage fright'.

Will continue to edit and try to abbreviate the text presentation, which is going to take a while.

As long as it's ok with you, Austin, you'll be receiving some more snail mail illustrations - that I'd like to leave in black and white, for use in enhancement of existing material.

Looks like I'll be wrestling this origami alligator for quite a while.

Any and all guidance and suggestions from any advisory source is requested and thankfully invited.

Thank you for being.

Best regards to all,
- RP

I know the feeling, RP. I tried to go through it myself and found it sort of difficult to gather the information, especially when I don't really know what is to be left in for editing.

The video is similarly very easy to do, and alot of the universities and university professors on their own have used relatively unprofessional equipment. Even a simple digital camera is remarkably clear, and it's a trial-and-error deal that can be cut out and manipulated until you would be satisfied with the result.

I'm sure Austin could make you look good, considering how good he made himself look in that red dress in one of his infamous pictures.

Austin and I are coordinating for the installment of some new illustrations.

There's no telling what he'll come up with from the material he's already got, and some other material I'm snail mailing to him tomorrow.

He says he can improve some of the hand written lettering he's already got in possession that's already posted, it looks like we're having another go at that material and some new stuff I'm sending him, and as you know, Austin's also mentioned that he's got some ideas in mind regarding presentation, which I'm looking forward to.

I've done a few books and videos for slac, and none better than what you have to offer in your theory. I can't wait to see the final result.

Best of luck, bud, and a special concession regarding your comrades you mentioned in the Shouter. That wasn't overlooked.

Hey there, Nobody:

Is 'slac' an abbreviation for the 'StanfordLinearAccelerator'?

In any case, Truly Yours has not before been more highly complimented.

Thank you.

Yes, that's the center, RP. Though I won't say absolute center.

Humility aside, you are well-deserving of many hitherto and thitherto compliments and apologies "finally" from certain parties.

Maybe great things await...

Well, Nobody. Thanks for the link. I clicked on it and have no idea how to intepret the instructions. I hope you're open to helping me further with it. You apparently aren't anticipating just how ignorant I am of this kind of stuff.

Which is better, an ebook, or a pdf?

In any case, as I understand it, I won't be posting any ebook or pdf until after I'm through editing the work as it exists in place (Under 'TOTAL FIELD THEORY: Reinstatement of Cosmological Constant), here, in the 'articles' section, at TOEquest.

Snailmail is on the way to Austin, consisting of some added illustrations and text. He's also indicated that he's working on some presentations of his own for inclusion. I certainly am hopeful to get some participation from Austin - there's just no telling how that guy may contribute, should he set his mind to it...

Appreciate the heck out of your station of perspective regarding my work. I hope your tentatively phrased optimism is reciprocated in future developments, though I may indeed receive some editorial advise, constructive criticism and maybe some compliments, going by past experience, any 'apologies' ain't likely. A lot of apparently irreconcilable investments have gone over the dam, on and off the net, at large...

Please stay in touch.
