Hi George. Sorry, you just lost me. "A is an interpretation. I is an analysis of that interpretation."
To me, A is an abstraction. A pure construct, better even a (what's the term for a self-sustaining thing without needing to imply a constructor) of undiluted Form without Substance. A can be A even without any Is around to do any interpreting. I - hmmm, I am not granted the luxury, or the satori, to abstract I, my self. I am mired in the Here Now, in the utterly non-A. So: A and I are as oil and water; the more intimately mixed, the more obscure they become.

I submit that we (Gawd. "We". Now there's a poser) have not evolved to the A, let alone beyond it. It remains forever untouchably abstract. Sez I (by way of disclaimer).
I hope I haven't disillusioned you; I often don't manage to see I to I with otherwise earnest colleagues.
