- Oh dear, you mean that its not just the local version of L that produces
- the "leak-loss" ? Ok, in that case, hows this for random thoughts...
-
- Normalwise, when we are just doing our everyday thing, there is some
- sort of low-level program that runs, keeping track of the fullness of
- the bladder and lower intestine. Whenever either of these two get
- filled up to a certain point, the program interupts the main
- conciousness and says "hey, see that toilet over there? we'd like to
- visit it pretty soon".
-
- But, whence the entire system has been "aLtered", the low-level program
- seems to not be able to raise the interupt anymore. Well, that is at
- least until the main-system sends a check to the low-level asking if its
- ok since it hasn't heard from it in such a long time.
-
- Be carefull, if this happens, the high-level can wind up thinking that
- the low-level has interupted, about once every five minutes.
-
- Which wouldn't be so bad, except for when you actually do go try to
- shake the weasel, things get _real_ strange. I guess the appropriate
- term would be "re-aquainted" with your, er, functions. It then becomes
- a battle to convince your low-level that it really is ok to let go now.
-
- and then of course, there is the tactile-hallucinations. no matter what
- your sex or orientation, it never fails to at least "surprise" the
- owners.
-
- so, my rule has been, 2 cups of strong coffee just before ingestion,
- which due to caffeines diuretic (sp?) effects, I can totally empty all
- containers _before_ things get weird. Of course, you then need a
- nicotine fix to stop the caffeine gitters, then the L starts, and....
