| .-- WHY NO ANSWER ----------------------------------------------------------------. |
| | the engine has no OFF. a verb cannot conclude itself; it can only hand its | |
| | steam to the next intake. consequence is never spent, only re-coupled. | |
| | that is the whole machine: a present tense that refuses to become a noun. | |
