>I think it was Samuel Clemmens who said "We are all stupid, some in one thing and some in another." I fall back on that alot, especially the oldr I get! :)

Ditto. :-) What I find really interesting is the seeming inability of many people to learn from mistakes and analyze reccuring situations. E.g. here in Atl the traffic backs up on I-85 every morning and every afternoon in exactly the same spot at virtually the same times. Now, admittedly, the road system here needs work ( work is actually being done now ) and road capacity is always a factor. But it amazes me that the same people do the same things every day which compound and aggravate the already bad traffic problem. If a little thought was applied to the situation by every individual, reasonable modifications in driving behavior could be made which would probably reduce the problem by 20-50% ... IMO. :-)
