Post Re: THE STICKEST; A NEW breed of modern visionaries
I of all people agree about the "visionary" thing but if you want what I consider to be the real sine qua non; the big country of the idea, try on "The Galss Bead Game" by Herman Hess. Blow's my mind every time and 'time and time again' when I read it
I think that The Stick is the key to the game. I asked Emmett once if he had read the book and
he said "oh yes, in the original German" 8-).

Thanks guys for all the stories and for talking about how you got into the Stick at various points....good stuff!

I've attached a Far Side cartoon which sums up Stick-playing way better then I would have been able to express in words. =)
