@happyme - Re your thoughts on the existence of Satan, it seems that "my mentor" agrees with you. Another meeting of minds? I hope this link eliminates that endlessly long thread preceding Carl's "Open Mic" original song, "You Are Not Alone." I wanted to avoid the unrelated comments and offer a link that is much closer to the performance. Not sure if that's possible. Maybe all comments and replies on the original post are inseparable, but what I'm trying to do is cut the thread. If it worked, enjoy! If it didn't work, scroll down a few miles and enjoy!

Your link worked perfectly. I didn't know you had a specific link in mind and were asking me how to grab it. I guess you found out how. I've never actually done that myself.
Seems I was lucky in my guess about why people choose certain names. His ideas of demonizing older Gods is slightly different than what I have in mind, but they are close.
I used your link to listen to the song, but also scrolled way up to read about his service. I'm thrilled to read that he does NOT use a bot and that his service is free. In his post he listed his SP and it is half of mine and I also have delegated SP of another 1,000 steem. It still gives me just 13 cents at best. It's a long road to becoming a Dolphin, never mind a Whale! I'm not even considered a minnow yet; I'm still just a Redfish. I actually prefer the term, Plankton; I think it more accurately reflects our relative size.
It seems Carl is quite the catch as far as a mentor goes. I agree whole-heartedly about the comment you made to him regarding the number of intelligent people found on this platform.
@happyme - No, I don't think Carl uses bots at all. He does everything himself or with the help of human assistants. He also has a family and has helped me just as you have. Where does he find the time?
I'll admit that I'm a very poor businesswoman. I launched a nonprofit which plunged beneath the ocean though my reputed "big heart" was certainly in the right place. But my thoughts about Matt and "The Mindshifters" probably had a particular imaginary objective in my head by which the group might conceivably need and purchase voting power on a critical issue. Such as what? I don't know. It was just a vague hypothesis. If an underrepresented minority IRL needs the voice of a trustworthy candidate to faithfully represent matters of concern, that minority group might pool its resources to ensure the election of its candidate. Likewise, if "The Mindshifters" as a group wish to elect a witness whose voice will be their voice, then "The Mindshifters" might consider a one-time lease agreement for the critical use of SP. But I don't have a specific idea in mind, only an embryonic thought. I certainly respect your decision to avoid that route. And I hope that I didn't misrepresent Matt. He thinks like a businessman with a conscientious heart and a sensitive soul. Any inadvertent distortion of that image is on me. My bad.
(Your chat room attempt to initiate a conversation was successful. I was notified when I woke up this morning. Much love, your friend The Plankton.)
