Perfume essences wafting
My thinking of 300 years and 11 generations is perhaps not only a piker, but somewhat limiting: I am only thinking of people as I know the species, or persons. I am thinking of intelligence mostly in terms of words and verbalizing. Even now there are plans afoot to communicate directly without going across lips and ears.
My thinking has been that communication, especially conversation, is of the essence of persons. Is that necessarily so? And are persons necessary? Can our essences be like perfume essences, wafting on the breezes? What would it mean to be that sort of entity?
