True, and I am 100% behind studying these behaviors and trying to determine the triggers. To me, a society that buries its head and cries "evil bastards!", without so much as trying to determine the cause, stands to see the same behaviors repeated again and again. Same goes for pedophiles, sociopaths, murderers and any other members of society who make us feel icky. Locking them up and forgetting about them does not change anything. It's not a contagious disease, it's pandemic on a sociological scale. In these cases, prevention really is the only cure.

I agree prevention is more like suppression according to Freud.

We Irish like to hammer a point home hard and with conviction... it often ends up in pregnancy, though...

Yeah, I've noticed that. I have often thought it best if we never meet up. I would not want to share a seat with you and somehow wind up with a half-drunk fetus in me.

Half drunken? No child of mine would be anything less than paralytic drunk. I also hasten to ask how you could be sharing a seat with me unless we're, you know...

Unless we're sharing a seat? Not all seats are made for one person, you know. Plus, you're too "Irish" for me, if you know what I mean. Tongue

How would you of reacted if the second you pressed 1 you were actually banned?
I think I'd feel a mixture of bemusement, shock, confusion and disdain.

Yeah, because they are by necessity both a mushroom slap and a teabag.
