There are two equally important and vastly distinct components to a completion of a task in this community. The first, is the praxis; genuinely free, self-conscious, authentic activity as opposed to the alienated labour demanded under capitalism. The second, is the writeup; your presentation of the thoughts and qualia of the act.
To the extent that one cannot truly exist without the other, we ask that the writeup include "proof" of the praxis. We don't need evidence, so much as we need suggestive, persuasive, or perhaps merely illustrative "proof". A chart of your calisthenics routine, a picture of a medicine ball, the beaver-hair lather brush; all in contrast to the icy foot-bath, the much belaboured parchment, and so forth. I can't really guess what your take on this other half of a "completion" will be, as so many players have found such diverse methods of pouring their experiences into the mold of submitting a task.
If this is the way Jefferson went about his day, how can you claim to have never heard of it being done this way?
