Good evening, Cynthia and Kealan,

I suppose the simplest way to describe an intranet is in describing what it is not--an extranet. That is, one only exists in a sort of negation of the other.

I'm not trying to be cute, here. I simply wanted to use networking concepts as analogous to principles of compartmentalization and damage control. For what reason, who can tell?

Thanks so much to the both of you for your reading and kind comments. And, also for your questions and prompts for explanation. I much enjoy them and will, by the way, be reading more on simulation theory.

Really enjoyed this piece. Mabye it's just me but does it have anything to do with Simulation Theory. Remember the universe is mental.

Very interesting topic, and well put, fluent and clever.

Clue me in on exactly what is 'intranet', please. I can make an educated guess but I'd rather be accurate.
