You Fred are both kind and brave just to interact on this silly

I love M.C. Escher! Studied closely the Douglas Hofstadter GEB book
over the years as well. Still, my aim is targeted at you -- any you --
focusing on the inside of your hands. Your palms.
The recursion TV theme I have had in mind is of Comedian Philosopher
Steve Martin on Saturday Night Live pointing at himself and exclaiming
"There's me watching me watching me watching me..."

capture my animated respect of Escher.
