Thanks lil. I can't take credit for the insight of the sexiness inherent to humility. We all intuit it I suspect, but a friend distilled it as: a measure of revealed vulnerability is one of the best things that can happen to a relationship.

My fear in starting this discussion was that I was running the risk of so tame and tepid a starting point as "rationality is good" that no one would bite. Instead I'm feeling like I need to get my head checked because some of my sources of rationality and self- & outer-inquiry are so far from some of hubski's ideal that I run the danger of literally falling in with bad people for it.
