Who said "unfortunate"? None of us is unfortunate. Sorry for this twist, that may have made you misunderstand me. We just have to accept our obscene decadence as big fun, me included, be it logorrhoeic or silent. We should only make it clear to ourselves that "multipointing" and "highpointing" sometimes etails conflicts with more sober, serious interests, perhaps politely expressed by Indians in Arizona whose territories we penetrate, or by bordergards in Morocco who may prevent a "dude" from drooling cross-Africa, or by mountains that throw me overboard, or by landmines that interested parties of a fortunate country sold and that rip my leg off when climbing on the Albanian/Makedonian border. This then may not be so fortunate...

So let us go on enjoy as long as we can.

Yes why dwell on it at all and bring it to BP? What do highpoints have in common with boundarypoints? Boundary - border - frontier - limit. In boundarypoints a small number of boundaries meet: Three - four - even five perhaps? In highpoints an indefinite number of lines meet: Sometimes these are boundaries, often borders like watersheds and cultural divides. Sometimes, if climbing has been arduous, highpoints were moving your frontiers ahead, and rarely, rarely, you will reach your limit in them. It has been only politics that has created your boundarypoints and my highpoints alike. Had there been no boundaries you would not have to dig for boundarypoints in flat, muddy fields; and I would not have to argue with people over the question whether perhaps hill number one is a centimeter higher than hill number two, only because it happens these two hills are the highest in a country. Only vain, narcisstic, decadent characters can find enjoyment in such weird hobbies.

hahahahaha

well i never

hahahaha

& wolfgang thank you for all these excellent sentiments & wishes tho i would only insert here that i myself dont consider myself nor other multipointers at all unfortunate

yikes

on the contrary

let alone unfortunate by virtue of the fact that there is a supposedly real world out there

hahahahaha

since what a great backdrop it is for having all this surreal fun that would otherwise never be possible

& often into the very teeth of this supposed reality

i would rather say we multipointers are multifortunate squared & cubed

& it is true if only we believe it so

& please overlook the truncation at this point since i only wanted to say this much to you

& to really forget the original topic as advertised above

tho i grant you do have the power to keep reminding us of it anyway

& after all someone did keep asking why

hahahahaha

so that was fair of you to explain why

but any conclusions about any misfortune whatsoever are really as well as technically not applicable to multipointing

we have it too good with this deliberate pursuit of multidimensional happiness to think of ourselves as unfortunate in any way
