As I said before Pete, they may even HAVE the best intentions, but when you are trapped in a "Law of Fives" type intellectual loop, you cannot even see that you are deluding yourself, because everything you think only keeps reinforcing and 'proving' the false assumptions you start off with. Some more cruel than I might even feel that levels of sanity might be on the limits....

While I do have a great sense of humor (see my Fooles writing on the web), when it comes to pure intellectual processes juggling abstract concepts, I'm rather like Mr Spock from Star Trek - no 'sense of humor' at all... :-P .. also I am more of a Generalist Inter-Disciplinarian than a Specific Expert - I know a lot about a little, but a little about a lot. I'm also blessed (or cursed - I say that in the Kingdom of The Blind, The One Eyed Man will be persecuted as a troublemaker!) with a level of intellectual capability that is definitely 'not average' - but I still do keep on trying to improve the thinking machine... :-)
