I'm not sure how to drive traffic here...I've done a bit of linkwhoring but it's even more time consuming than plain old blogging.<BR/><BR/>I probably originally got the meme about different worldviews from Leary/Wilson as well. It doesn't come very naturally to me. <BR/><BR/>Lakoff is important too, although his approach is a bit too schematic for my tastes...he doesn't quite get at the emotional side of things. I hadn't heard of the "inherited obligation/negotiated contract" model, but I think I <A HREF="http://www.gurus.com/dougdeb/politics/209.html" REL="nofollow">tracked it down here</A>.mtravenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02356162954308418556noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15644559.post-1132252523953419052005-11-17T10:35:00.000-08:002005-11-17T10:35:00.000-08:00Excellent post.

I clicked on comments on this (and your Morford one) and was shocked not to find any. Too bad there's no way to point that crowd over here.<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately I'm not adding anything useful here, except to agree with you. Stepping into other people's "reality tunnels" is an idea I got from reading Robert Anton Wilson and Timothy Leary. Though it is an essential tool of any salesperson, marketeer, musician, writer, performer, mimic, or student of languages, all of which I'd already been to one degree or another before discovering Wilson.<BR/><BR/>I'm surprised you didn't mention Lakof, nor the person who built on Lakoff to construct the "inherited obligation/negotiated contract" model, which I find the most useful of all of them thus far.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
