thanks, that's what i wanted to say... actually, not what i wnated to say,
but it goes further and disolves the artificial distinction of theory
versus practice. and to sum it up: what and how? and that should be
recursive and never solved. and inbetween it needs to be tested and make a
lot of noise - and it will, but that's only the half of it...

somebody told me that in america there is a new phrase: walk the talk,
which refers to putting theory into practice. i like that because talking
AND walking are both actions. and one shouldn't ever fall into the trap of
creating the distiction of active and inactive.

why not walk the talk for a bit and then talk the walk a while to walk some
more to talk about it?
