Hi Neocon, thanks for the answer - however, since that is the case, I don't think MNI is telling us the truth about "his surroundings".
"Maybe I am in the wrong society, but in my surrounding it simply wouldn't make a difference over the present behavior where your parents, grandparents etc. might have come from." - MNI
maybe he forgot to complete the sentence: "maybe.....might have come from - in my surrounding it makes ALL the difference over the present behaviour where your parents, grandparents etc DO COME FROM." - now that makes more sense coming from Germany - ask any GI of ethnic or melatonin "ambiguity" who serves on german soil, and they will tell you that the last half of the sentence I added is the case.
FWIW - anyway, hope you are doing good - I am re-reading my Herman Hesse - Magister Ludi The Glass Bead Game, he won the nobel prize for that futuristic "novel" however prophetic. it was a good read 20 years ago so I am going through it again, could see something I missed before when I knew everything :) Hope you are doing well in your investing and in health. bye4now, Jacalyn |
