Yes, that was how I was using it, in the same way that
Eli is isolated. Eli corresponds with people, talks
with them on the telephone, participates on this list,
and occasionaly attends conferences. But for the most
part his work is not colloborative but solitary. That
was what I meant, and that was what I was
illustrating.
The previous poster appeared to be attempting to
discredit Eli's work because he works primarly in
solitude.
