There's three kinds of people:
A) Those who make things happen,
2) Those who watch things happen
and
Þ) Those who wonder why things happen.

But my dearest Faldage, do you not make the philosopher's error of assuming that one's personal traits are universal? Philosophers must ultimately find
Their true perfection,
By learning all the foibles of mankind
Though introspection.--Piet Hein

Well, far be it from me to cast the flashlight of enlightenment into the footprints of ignorance again. All one seems to get is a muddy flashlight.Agreed.

Silly me, and I thought it was purely a matter of biology.

May I add
4) Those who laugh at things that happen?
I may not always have wise things to add to the often enthralling exchanges, but I must say, that I am getting my RDA of chortles!

Faldage, I may have been unfair to you. Given that you and wow have differing shades of opinions, which of you two pooh-bahs should I consider the higher authority on this particular subject? I must give that precedence to Faldage, for one simple reason: this board has long recognized that men are more sensitive about biology.
