(Comments, Solon?)
Also, a friend of ours--your neighbor, Oxy--shared this insight from McDermott with me today: "Experience doesn't diminish us. It enlarges."
Food for thought, as it were, isn't it?

...and certain experiences enlarge us more than others :)
Yes, that's the experience I was talking about!
To offer a somewhat different engagement with McDermott's grand quote.
"The gut is an epistemological organ" is a manifestly true statement. Although, we always want to be wary of conflating this truism with the notion that the gut is "THE epistemological organ."
There are after all others.
