What about the message(s)?

Like another poster, I was surprised folks didn't have more to say about "Stand Alone Complex". Like it's feature films counterparts, "SAC" is heavily imbued with philosophical discussions about the nature of existence, subjective perception, psychology, etc. While I think I got the basics of the discussions in "Ghost In The Shell", part 2, for me, was much more complex. I find these discussions in "SAC" also hard to follow. But amid the always intriguing art direction, (and tolerable English language dubbing) I like that these little lessons are implanted in the episodes, presumably meant to start dialogues between and amongst the writers and viewers.
