Animus, I don't know about that part--I guess you'll have to ask Erin.

The part of her blog that I quoted went along with the ideas in Steve's blog, I thought, and that's why I posted them here.

I actually had similar thoughts as you did about the part you quoted.

Interesting ideas about Asia being in the Spring, and the West in decline--I always thought the Kali Yuga covered all of us. But that's another thread.
