    enigma
In summary, Wolram is leaving his job and moving to a new city to be closer to the artist he admires, and is looking for a yorkshire pudding recipe and horseradish with his roast beef. He is enigmatic and does not reply to questions.

You're a charming, enigmatic woolie ram. :smile:

I'm quitting my job and moving there, do you make good yorkshire pudding? Can I have horseradish with my roast beef?

Hey, my yorkie puds grow about 4inches out of the tin, you can have horseradish if you do not want my beef gravy.

But why, why am i enigmatic?

Chopin (1810-1849) - prononced show-pan (nasal n).

I'm not sure about classical music charts, but I find this site useful http://www.classical.net/music/welcome.html .

Btw, shouldn't this post be in the other thread? :wink:

Wolram is not just an enigma.

He (she? it?) is a riddle wrapped in a mystery sheathed in a puzzle enclosed in a conundrum trapped in an enigma.

I wouldn't say your enigmatic, because your behavior and personality tends to be always according to one specific type, that means, you don't choose your way for a day according to a secret key book therefore you're not enigmatic. However we can't thoughtlessly assume that your behavior and personality is the same in the real world. Hence, I may conclude that you're rather Ceasar shift cipherish instead

I tend to form my mental portrait of people entirely by their dialogue. It doesn't have to be a correct representation of the person, merely consistent. This is an entirely unconscious and automatic process.

My mental portraits form slowly, like Google Earth's terrain algorithm (ooh, lovely simile, I'm a poet!), as I encounter people more and more. Thus, my protrait of Hurkyl* is pretty low-rez with little detail, while my portraits of Evo or Moonbear or Ivan Seeking are somewhat more detailed, including an approximate age, voice, nationality, etc. Again ,they look nothing like the real people, just as long as thoese people continue to behave in a way consistent with my portrait of them.

For wolram, my mental portrait does not simply continually refine itself. Instead it is rendered in chalk, with a handy eraser nearby. I'll build a mental portrait of him as a young, 20's-ish, American, happening, University student with a whip-like wit. And then he'll come along and post something that is so different, that my portrait will be erased and replaced with a quaint 50's-ish grey-haired Brit in a smoking jacket. And then just when that settles in, he'll come along and post something so different that even those two disparate portraits seem too ... familiar. A portrait will form of someone with ethnic-yet-indefinable features and a mysterious background and unknown profession.

More than nayone, I just don't know who I'm talking too.

That's what I mean by https://www.physicsforums.com/showpost.php?p=996161&postcount=11". :biggrin:



*no offense Hurkyl. If it's any consolation, it's a very sexy low-rez blob.

Wow, you're very perceptive; I actually am a blob. Gelatinous, to be exact. :biggrin:
