Gib, a little learning is all anyone gets, and any beats none. So Alexander Pope making a little rhyme is on a par with "If the glove don't fit, you must acquit". Well, by gosh, that does rhyme so I guess it's true. <When I read Elmat's posts on health issues, I'm irresistibly reminded of lines by a poet we studied at school: A little learning is a dangerous thing Drink deep, or taste not the Pierian spring (Alexander Pope) > No wonder you liked that. Any sensible schoolboy would quote it to the teacher and explain that all learning is limited so all is best avoided. No homework for me thanks. One could drown in those Pierian springs and still know less than a tiny fraction of what there is to know - such as what the heck a Pierian spring is anyway. His maxim should be dismissed for two reasons. One, it's illogical, two it's poetry and any poetry should be avoided even if logical. Mqurice
