the -E- to the -I- to the lost in space...

to answer your question C - I don't know. both Illusive and Elusive apply - in all references to Wilderness... because, it doesn't really exist (illusive) and if it does - it's hard to find (elusive). I think when I first wrote about Wilderness Illusions - I may have meant to use the term Elusive - because I could not find them, but then since I concluded that they must not exist then I was right to use the term illusive (though unintentionally) - (though I think I looked it up before I used it - so maybe it was intentional - it's now a blur to me). (Elusive?)
right.. so now that's cleared (or unclear). I'm going to go back to writing my essay on Wilderness illusions (not yet finished, sadly).
