Heh, well, OK. *smile*

THat is funny stufff...ah, the yesteryears of lore...

Given the diversity of personalities in this forum, there will probably always be a double-standard somewhere along the line. It is hard enough to find a single consistent individual, much less try to find consistency in a whole mob. Maybe it's time we started working more on psychohistory as Asimov wrote about in his Foundation books... It would be fun to be able to "predict" the mob's direction... *smile*
Cheers, and have a great weekend!
