Right. When I say that I'm exploring the idea of other people - other minds - incrementally, I mean teeny, tiny increments because all of the discoveries I've come across, so far, in the exploration of "others" - as well as time, physics/physicality and a few other ideas - can create great leaps of distance between me and "this world" that I'm not currently interested in because I'm a mech fanatic.
I enjoy mechanix. I enjoy exploring the idea, playing with all of the perceived ideas I have about its properties and using it all. Solidity, gravity, a little bit of chemistry and several other physically-based material properties, timing and all the rest and all of the presumed relationships between them.
