		<description><![CDATA[I’ve had a dodgy tooth for a while now but my dentist assured me there was nothing wrong that a bout of using mouthwash and diligent flossing wouldn’t cure.  So I embarked on a course of oral hygiene and thought things were moving along swimmingly when, the day before yesterday, I made the mistake of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been reading a book about an animal psychic who converses with creatures as diverse as crickets and squirrels. All you have to do, she claims, if you want some animal or insect to do something, is &#8216;frame&#8217; it in pictures in your own mind first, and then, if you can, frame it again from [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What happens when &#8220;Alexander hands&#8221; are put on a horse, as Jeremy Chance describes in Direction Volume 2 No 1? This must be a matter of interest for anyone who has ever wondered what it was they were teaching. The question is essentially one of control. In Alexandrian terms, it is only by exercising conscious [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It was suggested to me that: &#8220;&#8230;the function of the mind is to think, think about something.&#8221; This seems a bit hard on animals, who also have minds, but who presumably don&#8217;t have the capacity to &#8220;think about&#8221; matters in the way we do. Nor would I call the ability to string a series of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have long considered the only real difference between us and other animals is our ability to consider in the abstract; and that this ability, which probably began accidentally and has become something of a curse, is all that enabled us to get and stay &#8220;on top&#8221;. However, when I kept animals some years ago [...]]]></description>
