Dear David:
    I agree with you fully.  There is no limit for human imagination. That
is what makes us different from other forms of life.  I found a quote, which
I has been my guiding principle.  Here it is:

    "I salute the supreme teacheer, the Truth,
        whose Nature is Bliss;
        who is the giver of the highest happiness;
        who is pure wisdom;
        who is beyond all qualities and infinite like the sky;
        who is beyond words;
        who is one and eternal, pure and still;
        who is beyond change and phenomena, and
        who is the silent witness to all our thoughts and emotions--
    --I salute Truth, the supreme teacher.
                                        --Ancient Vedic Hymn.

    When I say "ancient", I mean "ancient", it is more than 5000 years old!
    I guess one can never change the Truth!

    Regards.
        Raj
