Bagster, here is my concern. Q appears to be repeating things: expand your thinking; who leaked (agency info) to WL?. I ask why repeat it? Is it important or his Q asking for us to come to a different answer after expanding our thinking?

I [texokie] had the same question about the repetition of that phrase, “expand your thinking,” Cletus!
Greeneyes brought this post to us upthread, which I copied into my Q file, but I neglected to capture the thread and post number.

One more to chew on a bit... This is not mine, I am compiling group think here... from a whole thread, the initial post and a couple comments, but these continual links and ties can start to get freaky.. I said it over and over... Q was working with double and triple meanings with hidden ones too in his posts.
EXPAND YOUR THINKING is a book written by David Hyerle, that explains how to build a MAP! NOTICE one of the maps is called THE BRIDGE!
Q was not just saying, Expand Your Thinking to encourage us to think outside the box, he was leading us to instructions on how to build the map! I think this is important, and needs attention!

Key phrases. Coincidence? THERE ARE NO COINCIDENCES

I just noticed that this thread is closed. I will take the liberty of posting it to the next thread, because I think it might be important not to lose!
Hope this helps!
Well DUH !
Wonder if I kept or gave that one away. It’s been awhile!
Good method - but only used parts of it!
Thank you for that info.
Maybe thinking about Dr. Edward D Bono and his Lateral thinking
Provocation Idea Generating Tool
A provocation is a statement that we know is wrong or impossible but is used to create new ideas. De Bono gives an example of considering river pollution and setting up the provocation "the factory is downstream of itself"; this leads to the idea of forcing a factory to take its water input from a point downstream of its output, an idea which later became law in some countries.[6]
Provocations can be set up by the use of any of the provocation techniqueswishful thinking, exaggeration, reversal, escape, distortion, or arising.
The thinker creates a list of provocations and then uses the most outlandish ones to move their thinking forward to new ideas.

TexOkie, that “expand your thinking” “Bridge” post may be the most important post yet. All smart analysts must read that. It shows how to make the map Q talks about and I bet that’s EXACTLY why Q keeps saying “expand your thinking.”
