I heard a group of laughing professors about thirty years ago discussing Eye Cue. One of them had read of a study in which it had been proven-- as such studies seem  always to be able to prove-- that one could predict the average Eye Cue of the group by the number of times EACH member laughed during a set time of intercourse. The higher the average of number of laughs, the higher the average Eye Cue of  the group. Roll them smileys out! We'll just be that  much  smarter! [I cannot cite my source. Too long ago, and, besides, who believes studies?  [raspberry-wannabe-e] Test regards, WordWise

two things:
  1. I take back all I said about Rubrick fixing the wide post. It was only just a matter of a different browser -- in IE it's still reallllllllly wide.
  2. hey jopublic: as a flatlander I can't tell which of your recent posts applies to whom -- but I guess it doesn't really matter a whit as each doesn't say much. [no wink]

Why would you want to call someone a jerk and not mean it? Thats funny is it? Your ability to be condescending exceeds both your ability argue a rigourous case and on the face of it, to make people laugh. Your base assumption, despite the abcence of smilleys in my proposition, was that I agreed with it. This is not consistent with the thesis you put forward, and may well therefor be ill founded.
  Cheers, Jopo.

  Thanks, tsuwm.  When I originally posted it was slightly wider than the screen width.  Now it seems to be inordinately long thanks to jopublic's very mature post of a line of dots.

  Wow, jopublic.  You write just like this Chicago so-called lawyer I know.  Are you related to him?
  Do you stay up all night writing your posts or do you just write them when the Chicago Internet cafés are open?
  You're a thinker (or so you say).  Ponder that.

  Dear wwh,
  I don't know whose study it was, wwh. I doubt it was Masters and Johnson. Don't think their interest lay primarily with either laughter or Eye Cue.
  Test regards, WW

  Hang on a sec here, Jo - you're a Brit and a Liverpudlian and you're claiming not to understand irony?  And also not to know the difference between being genuinely offensive and ribbing close friends?
  Guaranteed that either you're on a major wind-up or you're not what you say you are in your profile. Which is it?

  Your the doc. I would guess the correct term is dependent upon the proposed use. In either case sloppy ambiguity should be avoided.

For good *reasons, they ain't mutually exclusive on this side of the pond. BTW - Shouldn't "child like" be "child-like"?  ...(typified, for example, by... - How many typifications does it take to destroy a stereotype? ...and finally (whew)...invisible writing - My apologies. Twas only my last vision test which informed me that I have a " white-black deficiency".

My basic assumption is most people aren't wretched and unworthy.  There are a lot (a *LOT*) of people who consider themselves wretched and unworthy who are not.  They are beating themselves up for (over) nothing.  Too many people consider themselves miserable for indulging in victimless crimes.  
  Cheers, Bryan
  You are only wretched and unworthy if you choose to be.

Saturday 13th July 2002 - Castilia.
  Touché.
  I am indeed honoured to have the magister musicae respond to my post, and on this occasion, it would be churlish of me to offer a riposte. I look forward to raising swords with you again.
  With respect, Jopo.

Dear Jopo: Castilia? There used to be a home-made soap called "Castile soap". Can't remember reason for name, but deadliest threat from mothers was: "I'll wash your mouth out with Castile soap!" (for profanity, etc.)

Castile soap uses Olive oil for the fat in the soap.. an was first mmade in the Castile region of spain. 
  it is a very mild soft soap and often used washing babies.
  but because it is so soft, it easily lathers, so it would be very 'soapy' in your mouth!
