I considered the question to be more than sufficient answer. One, moreover, that is supported by my own subsequent observations both as poster and deputy.
I offered it to others for them to interpret as they wish because Dr. Bob may well be right. Perhaps it lends a certain sense of safety to Babblers to believe that he is out there, watching all. An all knowing, all powerful figure. I've acknowledged the wish myself.
But on the other hand, perhaps it's not as obvious an answer to others because it was intended for me, and he knew me well enough to know that I would find it an answer. In which case I apologize for being more confusing than I intended.
However, I think that would probably be a near delusional assumption of familiarity on Dr. Bob's part. :)
Is it really cryptic to others? I didn't mean it to be.
Perhaps one day I'll search the archives and try to interpret it. But perhaps not. A few illusions on my part do no harm.
