It is a little hard to understand the speaker. Maybe if the microphone was closer it would help. But he also sounds like he has a cold or something.
Read drive yoursealf sane and prometheus rising by robert anton wilson. their good introductions to general semantics in my opinion. I disagree with bob on one point; is that you can go out of the confines of non verbal abstraction through out of body experiences where consciousness is freed from the confine of the human nervous system enitrely. or even through neara deaath experieances which may incluade an out of body experience.
