Norman,

>Bryce says, "anyone
>who uses a clock is a coo-coo. Norman tells time using a clock.

What makes you believe that Bryce isn't using a clock?

If you believe he isn't using a clock then what he uses isn't, to you.

>From what I have seen of Bryce, he sees two kinds of clocks.

He learned to tell time with both, and found that FOR HIM, one was more 
accurate and applicable to his trading.

The reverse might be true for you.

You're both holding a different part of the same elephant.
Looking at different aspects of the same clock.

Is it more productive to argue about whether the elephant is a tree or an 
angel, or to see the whole elephant?

Does the same hold true for clocks?

When is a circle not a circle?

Is 3:00 90 degrees? So many trading days? A planetary aspect?

If planets can aspect, can numbers as well?

There is a story about people speaking different languages.
It is called the 'Tower of Babble'.

When they began speaking different languages they became more intent on 
destroying one another rather than noticing that what they both were saying 
was much the same and that they could each learn from the other.

                                             Babyloningly,
