AtD gold

[Mark Kohut]

David is right and I am firming up a longer defense of my moral reading.
It too must take into account what is 'beyond good and evil and
all binaries' or it is my weakness in the reading.....

Trying to find what is not to be "taken at face value" --perhaps what goes
"beyond the binaries of good/evil?" among other perspectives--- is also part of what I have tried to write
here, including all of that verbiage (of mine) about what is meaningful amidst all the parody.

Gold remark was simplistically lame, sorry---yet made 'cause THAT in AtD, GR and IH---seemed a base
belief of TRP's beyond irony, done parodically.

I'm trying to be more than simplistic. 

 Keep challenging

Barbie was, I'm sure, being facetious.  But Mark K. is typically
(including this time) the source of these "This is TRP's bad/good"
statements, and he's being serious.  At a very binary level, Mark is
at least half-way correct.  But binaries aren't to be taken at face
value (TRP's bad).
