        Interesting link. I believe that the last time I have understood so little in a piece of text I had been reading, it was written in old Sumerian language.

                What's the problem? I understood all the words. It's just the sentences I had difficulty with.

                  Thanks for posting this, making me realize that I am not the only one having difficulties reading it. I thought for a moment Herself had fed me another "stupid pill" this morning. :laugh:

                  Get me coffee and no one gets hurt!

                      Are you suggesting that not only 7 8 9, but 7 8 11? Or is that 10 8 11?

                          A person will come to your door dressed like this: [^] to patch your devices.

                          «... thank the gods that they have made you superior to those events which they have not placed within your own control, rendered you accountable for that only which is within you own control For what, then, have they made you responsible? For that which is alone in your own power—a right use of things as they appear.» Discourses of Epictetus Book I:12
