but...what does it all MEAN?

(speculation)

when you are in survival mode, your world is very small. it consists of you and everything else.

every move you make has a direct consequence on your life. every thought is a strategic thought, designed only to keep your head above the water long enough for you to come up with a better thought. it's hard to get ahead this way.

and like i mentioned, you have a narrow view of things. you are only concerned with staying alive for another moment, for prolonging what sometimes seems like your inevitable demise.

(i can see how this would make people crazy. how people think the radio is talking to them. of course it is, everything is about them if they are desperately trying not to loose their footing - because that is the only thing that matters.)

i digress, as usual.

actually, i've lost the point now anyway. which maybe was just a question:

if you think the radio is talking to you, are you crazy?
