1: Paying attention. "The willful invocation of awe." Accessing cause and effect relationships by means other than the usual or normal. Seemingly getting something for nothing. Changing your mind, and changing the universe's mind, to get precisely what you want. Language. Communication.

2: Yes, in terms of context and precision.

3: Self-defense. "The greater good," whatever that means. I stand on the China Miéville version of killing as Choice Crime. It removes all options for immediate and future choices that person may have, and is thus despicable and not to be done lightly.

4: Cthulade.

5: A woodchuck could chuck as much as it would chuck (if a woodchuck could chuck wood).

IMHO, "Paying attention" is the best way of describing it I've EVER heard in my life.

I've recently called that "the practical skill behind good luck."

Also a great way to put that.

It's... Really really complicated.

We make it in five gallon batches, these days, once a year, during Dragon*Con. Sweet, caffeinated, delicious.
