[Dialogue] Request

[George R. Packard]

"Transpodane" an old jargon joke -- one of our more arcane attempts to
generate a new word from an old one -- "Transpontine" -- defined as seeing
to the other side -- of the bridge -- specifically across the London Bridge
to the southern side. We used it to describe what might be associated with
universal thought, or grounded ontological thinking, or the ability to see
into another's position from your own relational commitment.
