Lazarus Long,

Well, I have missed you and your black and white thinking, ignoring complexities, during your absence. Aside from STATES rules, there seems to be a universal ban against incest with ones mother even amongst other primates, although I don't know all the data there. I don't know about the universality with sisters. However, in the Old Testament, when a brother died, an unmarried brother was obligated to marry his surviving widow. So societal rules vary depending on cultural and sociological situations. I have always been against SUV's as they are hogs (the drivers, that is. They think that might makes right) on the road as well as at the pump.
