29 STAYS THE SAME

31 First, a history: I was writing my
32 thoughts in a book. I got a typewriter
33 and typing things in a book
34 became impossible. I began typing
35 on 4x6 notecards. I ran out of
36 ribbon in my typewriter. I wrote
37 on the 4x6 notecards. I bought a
38 new ribbon and new notecards. Now
39 again I am typing on notecards.
40 What have I been typing?
41 Thoughts, impressions maybe, a log
42 of changes to my mental state. I
43 waited long enough and I began
44 recording them in the same way. If
45 I wait longer the ribbon will run
46 out again and I&#39;ll write again, on
47 notecards or in my book. The same
48 thoughts in different bodies.
49 That&#39;s what it means, &quot;Every
50 thing changes or everything stays
51 the same.&quot; It might as well be
52 &quot;and.&quot; Local differences add up to
53 global identities. It&#39;s a hoop,
54 right? And we keep going around
55 and we think it&#39;s flat but it&#39;s
56 round like the Earth.</code></pre>
57 <p>Paul pushed his chair away from the Writing Desk and stared at the notecard. He stood up, knocked his head on the lightbulb, swore. He pulled the notecard from his typewriter and crumpled it up with his left hand. With his right hand he reached in his pocket and pulled out his cigarettes. He put one in his mouth, threw the paper in the corner, grabbed his axe, went out into the woods.</p>
