As it were, apples and oranges can still be thought of as fruit.

You know who else didn't compare apples to oranges? Hitler.

He sounds a lot like my late father,but more sophisticated. Dad's unbeatable response to any disagreement,on any topic,was "you're just stupid!". Dad was over 6 feet tall and looked like really nasty member of the vice squad having a really bad day. (except when he was in a bad mood)Cool Shades
