Speaking of bear videos
AlanWatts said:Because say when a person says, "I see a leaf"
Immediately, one thinks of a spearhead-shaped thing
Outlined in black and filled in with flat green
No leaf looks like that
No leaves, leaves are not green
That's why Lao-Tzu said, "The five colors make a man blind
The five tones make a man deaf"
Because if you can only see five colors, you're blind
And if you can only hear five tones in music, you're deaf
You see, if you force sound into five tones
You force color into five colors, you're blind and deaf
The world of color is infinite, as is the world of sound
And it is only by stopping fixing conceptions on the world of color and sound
That you really begin to hear it and see it
Yeah, that story gets mentioned a lot, but I don't really buy it. If you've seen through the enemy's deception, you generally don't want to let them know you have for no reason. And to risk one of your planes in enemy airspace to do so.
Not all victories are measured in square space taken. Think about all the work, counter intelligence and resources the Germans used to make all of that, just for the RAF to drop the equivalent of the sad trombone noise on it.Yeah, that story gets mentioned a lot, but I don't really buy it.

Morale isn't just about people feeling good or bad, but about the will to do what it takes to accomplish the mission. What the RAF did here was really take some wind out of their enemies' sails.Not all victories are measured in square space taken.
