Sorry, but I don't buy it. A book's emotional resonances (and I'm more than
a little skeptical that this _should_ be intelligible to the people on the
Astral, but that's a separate flamewar) come from an organization of written
concepts as a deliberate form of artistic communication. An electrified piece
of wire has no aesthetic content.
