Koohii stories:
1) [dwhitman] 26-10-2007(325): Constancy is holding the same state of mind over a long span of time. (tweaking PepeSeco and mspertus).
2) [dingomick] 8-8-2007(70): Data is the epitome of constancy. As a robot, his consistency spans the entire day.
3) [sutebun] 25-10-2007(20): A term used by Kant. Kant says that humans are preconditioned to experience the world in space and time, but God's mind has Constancy. That is, God's is a state of mind that spans all time and is not inhibited by it.
4) [ivoSF] 20-6-2006(16): Imagine a giant field of grass where a man sits trying to abtain zen, he sit still as a statue, holding his fingertips against eachother, while the day and night (the spanning of the day) shoot pass you like in a 100000x forwarded movie. the seasons change but yet the man does not move. that whole picture combined gives me a feel of constancy.
5) [dihutenosa] 6-2-2008(14): Data couldn't break the span of his CONSTANCY of his state of mind (ooh double reinforcement) if he tried. Just watch: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMWoaHyIKMs See? He is serious from dusk to dawn. He can't break that serious look for one moment.
