Gabriel Egan clarifies:

Thanks for clarifying that point for me.  I have a habit of separating
"practicer" from the person or persons practiced upon. But what you are saying,
for example, is that the practice of living links those who practice living to
the project of living.  As far as ideology is concerned, there is no way to
separate the dancer from the dance.

But how would <italic>you</italic>, Gabriel, define <italic>ideology</italic>?
You tantalize us.

Yours, Bill Godshalk
