E. Graphs & Dipy: > Dipy, Don't you ever think positive? Pass the wine, > please......not the chips, thanks. From my understanding of Dipy (from his past comments) here is what perhaps best describes him (in my view and my understanding of his comments on LSI and ASND threads - so take it for what is its worth): Imagine a kitchen setting in the 60's with an older gentleman and his teenage son talking and arguing. The teenage kid wants to use his dad's car and to go out on a hot date and the father does not let him do so. The day before they had argued over the teenage kid wanting to go to the college of his choice rather than to the community college next door where his dad wants him to go. Tonights argue starts over the teenage kid wanting to use the car to go out on a hot date. And here is the conversation that takes place:Father: my son, you have to study hard. You can always have fun but what you get on your physics exam is what is the most important thing you should think about! When I was your age all I did was to study and to work hard! The teenage son : So dad what did it get you? You are an average guy who had no fun, never took any risk in your life and always played it safe! Dont you have dreams you want to achieve?! Father: What do you mean what it got me?! I have a steady job at General Motors that gives me a steady pay check every 2 weeks and puts the food on our table! what else can you possibly want in life and especially in these hard economic times! Teenage son: But dad, dont you understand, I am still young! I want to have fun, I want to experience things, I need to take my chances on my own terms otherwise for as long as I live I never know what would have happened if I had done that or that or that!! Father: You are illogical! Youare talking none sense! You need to study hard and hope that General Motors also gives you a steady job with a steady pay check! So go to your room and study and dont argue and give me these none sense! Now this cautious father is how I view my cyber friend Dipy looks like and talks! The rest of us maybe a bunch of teenage kids to Dipy, and who am I to say who is right or wrong?!! Regards, Addi Jamshidi P.S - Dipy, please note this was all for fun... Its Friday afternoon and I am taking a break from the project I am working on... So please, this is just for fun...
