Well said. I applaud.

Just roaming around enjoying the forum finding out what "means this stirr in Rome"....

Terrence,

Thanks for the inspiration. I knew I could count on you.

"Skipper, most people in this world are followers, not leaders. Most believe what they are told and their thoughts and aspirations have a limited horizon. Bold ideas, change, the future frightens them -- yet to exercise freedom you must embrace these things."

Perhaps the difference between the country then and the country now is that then it was full of those who challenged and made their future, all of them leaders, whereas the followers had been left behind in England.

Mars, anyone?

Skipper

Pap is saying: "The men and women who have lived large are missed, are remembered. The rest are swept -- quite rightly -- into the ashbin of history." When you have just said: "...the universe begins when we are born and ends when we are dead..."

That is pap, isn't it? (Conforming with the totality of your unreasoned spewings.)
