Thanks Len, I sure hope so (Can we do it without inventing YetAnotherOOPLang).

I'll have to run through some of the notes on process dynamics that I've been accumulating over the years to fill out the discussion as we go.  Of course this ties in with gestures and a whole slew of other things. I want to avoid getting caught in a never ending "attractor" of "complication" that pulls us
off coarse.  So we'll have to be careful.   "Here be Dragons..."

The "perception" (feeling) of where the body parts are, is the result of the signals received from Muscle Spindles and Golgi tendon organs run through an "internal model" of our bodies structure that has been built up over time.
