What? Is that really what you see in Tobie's words? Because that's certainly not what I see, and I can't see the tip of my nose without glasses.
Let's try a little experiment:
"The rules of the road appear unchanging to us because we are all capable of learning how to drive, therefore we will drive in the same, or a similar way."
vs.
"Because we can all learn to drive we now all have the same car? Don't think so..."
Hmm. Let's try a variation:
"The rules of nutrition appear unchanging to us because we are all capable of learning to eat healthily and sensibly, therefore we will eat in the same, or a similar way."
vs.
"Because we can all learn to eat healthily and sensibly we now all have the same mouth? Don't think so..."
You know what? I don't blame you. I don't think so either.
