Oh I can hold a clear mind for longer; I'm was speaking more of noticing the rising and falling of thoughts; the trails of memory and noticing them come and disappear. They rise and fall, or pass by like clouds and take about 4 seconds to go past if you let them go, or they can stay if you reinforce them, at least in my mind. I can hold on to a particular thought for long periods of time by strengthening and reinforcement; repetitive words are useful for that, or earworms (like song pieces). I suspect I'd need an editor; maybe someday someone will come up and become enraptured with my mind and want to -know everything- and they could study my thoughts and put it into a book. I'll probably be dead by then if it happens at all.. but heck, if it's on the 'net, and I keep a renewal on it... who knows? Is it Likely it'll happen? Nope. But I think that's why I've been putting it 'out there' rather than trying to collect it all myself. [I even started scanning some of the cards on [1]http://kennethudut.com just to get them 'out there' - but after 700 cards, I got bored of scanning] References Visible links 1. http://kennethudut.com/
