Nobody had suggested that you had read Rupe and I hadn't suggested that you read my post my post . I provided an example of derision i.e. mine, that didn't mean that you had read it or where aware of the point of the derision .
You don't have to respond to questions but I do wonder why you didn't . e.g. you had said "We should recognise, appreciate and respect that, and not deride. "
Who was deriding ?
You also said " our forebears created, on occasion, places with a deliberate auditory element to them "
You were asked ."Why assume that Stonehenge or WKLB or other prehistoric monuments were "created ....with a deliberate auditory element to them " ?
In one reply , that didn't respond to the questions you also suggested that I should feel free to apologise , but failed to explain, when asked what I should be apologising about .
Clearly , you don't have to respond or answer questions but it tends to be the norm in forum discussions .
It's an interesting subject and you felt interested enough to voice an opinion , why not provide further contributions ?
