Thanks for the reference to Robert Anton Wilson. His works truly get to and under our cognitive distortions. One of my favorite quotes of his:
"Is", "is." "is"—the idiocy of the word haunts me. If it were abolished, human thought might begin to make sense. I don't know what anything "is"; I only know how it seems to me at this moment."
— Robert Anton Wilson, The Historical Illuminatus Chronicles, as spoken by the character Sigismundo Celine.
