Sian-WW, very interesting little factoid. Hmmm. But back to the thread - here BE dragons. Doesn't hurt to notice them. Fear in the presence of danger is normal and intelligent. Absence of fear is not. Keeping on with what you need/want to do in the presence of fear is courage. We (here in the US) are not imagining our danger - it's real. And I understand people who have no patience with us going Yikes at every shadow, after all, that fear was real for a lot of the world for a long time before it came stateside. But it IS new to us, however unrealistic our past may have been, it really was our past. The trick is not to pretend it doesn't scare you - or, even worse, not HAVE it scare you. The trick is courage, not fear. Dragons are ignored at your peril.
