Ayup, but don't tell it to Katrina victims.

I think the upsides have something to do with social learning and adaptions, and the downsides can be very deeply personal.

If that makes sense.

With all due respect, take that spiritual crap and stuff it you your yin/yang.

Scott was much better for me in corporal form.

Don't let him get you riled Fishy. You cannot be Spiritual if you do not passionatly embrace and cherish the "material" world. To not feel and greive the loss of a loved one, even though you know you will meet and be with him in the next life, seemeth to me to be a lack of spirituality. I am sad for your loss Fishy.

Yeah. And a lot of what was lost in Katrina was things like neighborhoods--including the interconnections between people. That may not be "spiritual" per se, but it sure isn't the vanity of compusive collecting.

Thanks, box burner.

Bastille Day
July 14, 1789, the Storming of the Bastille, considered (in the popular imagination at least) to be the beginning of the French Revolution.
the wiki page
It was a Parisian Prison.
I knew I had a 50/50 chance of messing with the white on white thing, but blue, white and red are teh colors of the french flag.
