This post represents a significant new development in the Sir Toby’s thread(s). Initially, its meaning seems clouded in obscurity, and we hope the mystery concerning the identity and mission of this latest character to appear through the Sir Toby portals will be clarified in subsequent posts - or better still, the mystery will become more deeply obscure.

The challenge now presented to the general editor of The Chronicles is how to dovetail this latest development in the narrative with the inaugurated Sir Toby Redivivus thread - which hangs suspended, as it were, in cyberspace.

Or maybe this post is the beginning of a parallel narrative, offering the possibility of exploring multiple parallel narratives in a multi-dimensional post Einsteinian universe. (String theory?)

Or maybe it presents the opportunity of a different way of doing Sir Toby’s, where multiple disconnected contributions offer the possibility of exploring in a variegated way the interests of contributors, merely hinting at, in shadowy metaphorical form, their actual interests - subliminally or subconsciously stated.

And thus through the inner world of symbol and imagery, we open up the Jungian collective unconscious of Gaia, connecting every participant of OST and this thread in particular, every other thread, every theological viewpoint, and indeed every inhabitant of the Gaian universe, living or dead.

I look forward to further instalments of this narrative. Or others. Or maybe none at all. Does John (Doyle) have any light to shed on the matter?
