Quite a long time ago, I got tagged for the first time by Coyote. Being by nature a lazy procrastinator, I've just now decided to decline the simple cut-and-past job necessary to effect the meme. I think partly because the "pervasive communication" experiment doesn't require any extra effort on my part, ironically enough, I find it too tedious. Don't take it personally, Coyote.
Now I discover that I've been tagged again, by MDM at Upaya. Partly because the prodding comes from a fellow libertarian who ostensibly has at least a passing familiarity with Buddhism (upaya is a Sanskrit term meaning "skillful teaching," a concept that is central to the Lotus Sutra), I've decided to partake of this meme.
