Thomas, Isn't it possible that I'm just sick of a bunch of know-it-alls? Am I a know-it-all? Why do others call me all-knowing then? Could it be that the preponderance of postings on most threads is nothing more than opinion and subjective rhetoric? Wouldn't it be better asked if most posters prefer my opinions and subjective rhetoric? Is it possible that your post offended a gentle soul that seeks knowledge through a Socratic methodolgy of reason? Am I to infer that you're considering the Hemlock Society because of my callous disregard for your gentle soul? KJC

Is it possible for this thread to be listed on the hot list of SI? Can you imagine if all the post that have multiple questions in them had each been an individual post? ~~Neenny~~

Tom, Did you have any specific types of questions in mind when you started this thread?? Has it gone playfully amuck? Playfully, ~~Neenny~~
