That shift in systemic approach is first realized by conjectively shifting all data when received immediately into a convolution of the data against a sense-of-conjecture, and in so doing, literally create a scale of meaning along the one dimension of sense as a memory retrieval mechanism via ordinal position along this scale of sense.

   This is the kind of stuff that has given KR a bad name.

Mind you, as TimBL points out, hypertext was getting a bad name in the
