      Why do you think "having lived under a dictator" makes someone special?

If my memory serves me right, it was because of the higher levels of benzene in unleaded gas. I wouldn't be too surprised if it turns out that aromatic compounds such as benzene and cigarette smoke are the biggest sources of cancer in the western world. Good music: In my rosary[^]

            Back in the mid '70's when I was taking organic chemistry, I discovered that benzene was very good as a hand cleaner - until the lab assistant saw me doing it and explained it was one of the most potent carcinogens known. I've been waiting since then for some kind of cancer to strike based on that. So far, so good... :~ No one that I'm related to has ever had cancer (well, anyone under 80 or so) so I'm not too paranoid about it. Still, that kind of exposure doesn't make you feel all warm and fuzzy. "Capitalism is the source of all true freedom."

                It was about the comparison you made. Comparisons make sense only when done among similar objects and among the objects in the same context.

It looks like most people are like that, either they focus on bad things they experience or just don't care about the good stuff they got. Ideally, happiness is focusing only on good things and being self-satisfied, but many times people would disregard justice if they focused only on good things.

                      sweet! "The way your dad looked at it, this watch was your birthright. He'd be damned if any of the slopes were gonna get their greasy yellow hands on his boy's birthright. So he hid it in the one place he knew he could hide something: his ass. Five long years, he wore this watch up his ass. Then when he died of dysentery, he gave me the watch. I hid this uncomfortable piece of metal up my ass for two years. Then, after seven years, I was sent home to my family. And now, little man, I give the watch to you."
