Lincoln,

Thank you for the wonderful explanation! The Wikipedia citation was very helpful, too.

I’m afraid this blog hasn’t had a lot of readers lately, partly because I have been too busy to post to it. One of these days I’ll come back to it. Anyway, that is the likely reason why yours was the first (real) comment on this post.

It’s hard for me to believe 1) that you don’t know what Mu! is about and 2) that no one has explained Mu! to you yet.

In the Rinzai branch of Zen Buddhism, one of the most common techniques, or practices, used to bring the practitioner to awakening is called the “koan”. Mu! is the first and most famous koan.

For more info, go to URL “http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mu_(negative)” . Once you understand the reference to Mu!, you will also understand why Pooch is in this particular strip. The sentence “Do not confuse the pointing finger with the moon” restates a classic Buddhist exhortation to not confuse explanations of reality with direct awareness of reality.

A koan is a logical puzzle that has no obvious solution. The teacher gives a koan to the practitioner, who then goes to think about it until it becomes a burning obsession. Periodically the practitioner returns for a formal audience before the teacher. At this audience, the practitioner must demonstrate her understanding of the koan. After the practitioner attempts her demonstration, the teacher usually rebukes her and sends her away to ponder some more.

The Younger Dryas impact hypothesis can easilly be proven conclusively. And I have said proof in hand, in the form of rock samples of pristine, non-volcanogenic ignimbrite, with magnetic, thermal outer glaze intact. Imagine a giant cluster, hundreds of miles across, and consisting of tens of thousands of comet fragments; each of them, much larger than Tunguska, 1908. All of the fragments exploded above ground. And only those on the leading edge of the cluster fell into cold atmosphere. The rest fell into already superheated impact plasma, and just added to the heat, and pressure.

But never mind looking for a crater. Think ‘Multple airburst, thermal atmospheric, Geo-Ablative, impact event.
