CYCLE OF AN OVERT
  1. it goes like this.
    1. a being doesn't get the meaning of a word or symbol.
    2. this causes the being to misunderstand the area of the symbol or word (who used it, whatever it applied to).
    3. this causes the being to feel different from or antagonized toward the user or whatever of the symbol and so makes it all right to commit an overt.
    4. having committed the overt, the being now feels he has to have a motivator and so feels caved in.
    This is the stuff of which Hades is made. This is the trap. This is why people get sick. This is stupidity and lack of ability. (HCOB 8 Sept 64)
