from maudlin to lemuel:
"What I have gathered is that the people who precipitate here have been around, precipitating, for a long time. Long time.  Like what in archaeology might be called "olden times", or "deep antiquity", even "prehistory".  For example, I'm not clear on this, I could be wrong, but one day I caught a glimpse of evidence that, you know the fellow on here who communicates by linking?  You can tune into his mind and he'll start linking things you're thinking about.  Anyway back in the olden times he actually typed out words...."
 
If you haven't yet read all of Against the Day, this is very allusively reminiscent of "the telepathic communication among natural peoples" as 
my notes have it, pp. 992-993 ff in AtD.
