In which you examine the two-horse drawn chariot from a more ecologically-historical angle….
You are with your kind phellows and other civilized scoundrels, such as the Gray jay and the Yellow-pine chipmunk, thinking and talking about truth. The dog keeps the robberbandits at bay. If we could find some use for them, we’d make them our slaves.

Sure, it was about madness and rhetoric and all of that, but Plato was pointing to something about those two horses, and the trees too. You lie in your tent, covered with two sleepingbags, enclosed by Lodgepole pines, supported by dust, knowledgeable of a watersource nearby, breathing icy air, wondering if sleep will come soon or never, embraced by your beloved, significant other.
Proposition: “It is reported that people returning from time spent with primitive cultures breeds discontent, anxiety, and boredom upon re-entry into the conveniences of their cultures-of-origin.”
