I love fluid dynamics as a descriptor. People understand fluids
   very readily and keeps the subject from becoming... dry. [had to
   - I can't resist a bad pun Electrical and mechanical analogies
   can be more abstract to imagine, but water is something we've
   each seen in all of its forms and all of is actions and how it's
   used; allowing some very complicated things entirely explainable
   to a 4 year old old, that they'd struggle with in University if
   they were using terms like electron holes and such. How about
   buckets? We know buckets]

   I love seeing linguistic migrations and ideological movements;
   from the college Linguistics 101 course where I learned about
   the Great Vowel Shift and my exposure as a young teenager to
   Joseph Campbell and "The Power of Myth"/Heroof 1000 faces as my
   inspiration for ideological movements.

   Since those initial experiences, I've launched into my own
   investigations through the years, in whatever areas interested
   me.

   But the thing they each had in common, Joseph Campbell and the
   Great Vowel Shift alike; they both erased the lines of
   everything I was taught and the hard walls between religions and
   mythologies, and the apparent capsules around words that made
   them appear eternal where shown instead to be held together by
   many hands operating over many hundreds and thousands of years
   and holding together the very ways I conceptualize everything,
   even at this present moment, while I am writing these words.

   Quite powerful stuff.
