* I've wondered about the 'is" question myself many times. Not
       being able to give myself a good answer (and I didn't
       discover Heidegger 'til you pointed him out to me a few
       weeks ago), I had to conclude that I must avoid too much
       "is" and instead use more "perhaps, maybe, appears, seems"
       language, which I've been doing for the past 25 years or so.
       [the "is" question gave me a headache in high school and I
       couldn't find any good example to use it, unless I was
       trying to prove a point and using "is" as emotional leverage
       of some kind. I didn't call it emotional leverage back
       then... I was a teenager and didn't talk that way.. but it's
       the same reason I didn't like math in school. I was good at
       it, but having had computers from when I was 11 and learning
       about binary and alternate math systems, I knew that the =
       was a bit of a lie and depended upon the base 10 system. I
       didn't really 'get' the whole "axiom/proof" thing I learned
       in Geometry though until about a year ago when I finally
       went, "Oh! ok, got it. Still don't like it"

       [4]Kenneth Udut lol brain vomit up there. To me "is"
       approximates to "=" and suffers much of the same issue for
       me: the machinery that has to surround them to make them a
       'truth'.
