Perhaps so! But I hate to think that I can accomplish in six months of part-time effort what these three could not in thirty years of full-time effort... much more likely, one should think, that I'm barking up the wrong tree. After all, I'm conditioned to thinking that if one honestly seeks, they find—certainly, that's been my experience! So does that mean only ~25% are being honest about their seeking?
Still, your point is taken. I suppose if there's anything to come out of this, it's that I've ordered myself a hardcopy of Taylor's translation of Plotinus...
