On: The Creation of Abulafia

[riffraff]

my mis-intepretation is as good as yours, but IIRC their specific conspiracy wasn't real to begin with, but it _becomes_ real.

That was the genius bit of the book, IMVHO.

I think I prefer that. The idea it was not real but was believed to be is not nearly as good as that it became real.
