let's try this again

[erik andrew cornellier]

I have not idea what territorial viscousity is, but I can hazard a guess.

Viscous means thick but not solid, a consistency like egg
whites.  Territory is land that is under sovereign authority.  A border is
what delimits territory.  I am guessing that "territorial viscousity" says
something like...

borders, states, name your catch phrase.. are social constructions
etc.  insert power bad stuff.
