what should we mean by a "cool thinker" and a "hot thinker"?
- the "cool" thinkers = the outlines or the outliners
- many ways to understand them
- could work with more than one kind of setting
- no "ties" to any other some-such group
- no "proud mindset" to "being the first to do it"
- can bargain and see things in new lights
- the "hot" thinkers = the overly-proud ones
- only one meaning in their words
- no wiggle room whatsoever with them
- strong ties with some-such group
- must buy their "intellectual property"
- no buckling with these folk: "A is A"
(these "groups" of thought could run along a shaded line)
