great job, Bekah!  Thanks for provoking thoughts and providing
background & focus!

transcendence - does anybody else keep flashing on
the scene in Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test where Page
Browning (namesake of our Page, who I was thinking
of for some reason as a female person - not that it's any
of my business or affects anything beyond this former census-taker's
(1980 - talk about a crap job...but anyway...)
bean-counting of list personnel?) -
orates on "transcending the bullshit?" he's waving his toothbrush around
and it's altogether one of the finest scenes in EKAAT...
