Joe:
I am glad you find my Fable fabulous. -It is a fable after all. Thank you.
Fables, and several other types of literature, are great because there is a moral -interpretation- for each reader.
The porpoise of the contest is to find which assumptions are wrong.
Any assumption might be wrong if not tested, and if something is tested is not an assumption.
So yes, even it is not the moral I thought, what you obtained is a great way to interpret the fable.
As stated in a comment before this one, I'll be sending some posts on the different essays I find interesting now that my essay is published. Your essay is one I've read and I should comment shortly.
In the mean time and as a quick thought I think your essay and mine tend to the same line of thought:
Each human can find her/his own truth, but no one should pretend to have a general truth for all.
