My apologies.  I was thinking of the *external* factors which impact on
the condition of humans, not the *constants* which are inherent in the
human condition.

I was thinking again of how effectively Bach conveys to me, through music,
his emotions at the time of composition.  It is really an amazing thing,
that through the artistic process, a person can send emotional messages
to people of all future generations.
