<p>The Bălan clade,</p>
<p>For as often as we talk about being trackers, I sometimes wonder if we aren&rsquo;t maybe more aligned with the Odists&rsquo; approach to dissolution than we give ourselves credit for. Not the structure, perhaps, but to hear May and Dear talk, this idea that each of the first lines would fork to explore an interest isn&rsquo;t that unfamiliar to us, is it? We fork to work on projects and usually merge back, and yet when we are taken up by fixation, individuation sets in and we are suddenly no longer who we were.</p>
<p>That&rsquo;s not all the Odists do, though &mdash; and, apparently, it&rsquo;s not all we do, either. They have their secret, long-lived selves, those who drift away from who they used to be, and they fork often enough to work on a task. Their instances will linger to track a task from start to finish and then they&rsquo;ll merge back down, just as we did.</p>
