Greetings! I just read your post concerning the ancient basque people and although it doesn't seem to be a Cosmic topic, I would like to refer to you mentioning the Basque beret. It has been my preferred headgear for decades and once an elderly gentleman approached me here in WesternWisconsin thinking I was from his homeland. I am, however, from so-called East Germany and have nevertheless worn berets (of which the Basque one is my preferred size), since the time when I was seen as a "walking anachronism", as I was called by a fellow student in Greifswald.
The roundness of the beret leads me to an essay of greatest importance for us open minded students of space and time and what lies beyond: R. W. Emerson's "Circles". Although I tried to join the forum quite some time ago, it took the admin some time to respond, which then I only half registered... so this is my first post! Interesting how this was triggered!
