Doesn't a root system have a single point of connection in the stem/trunk/whatever?

Depends on the plant. Some plants, like plum or fig trees, have a lot of suckers poking out of the ground and putting up shoots. If they get disconnected from the rest of the roots they keep on growing.

Fucking love Deleuze. Don't understand a word he has written, but love him anyway.

What are you, schizo(analyzing) or something?

I had a mild obsession with Deluze just out of college, and to this day I do not really know for sure that I understand his work as he intended it.
