Thanks, Cass! That was my thought.

Although, DV, I think you’d enjoy that conversation (it’s about one-third down on that page).

You have no idea what I am talking about, do you?

FWIW, I do know what you meant with this thread and all, but simply trying to have a little fun at your expense. Cheer the frick up! Hope that helped.

we’ve somehow managed to become more isolated from each other

And I think that we’ve invested a great deal of work in maintaining alot of that isolation.

all I know is that I’m part black right now. Hmm...that wouldn't be Dennis Hopper's character, Clifford Worley speaking to Christoper Walkins' character, Vincenzo Coccotti, from the move True Romance, now, would it?

From our vantage point, looking back and then looking forward, humans are kind of a paradox. As there becomes more of us, becoming closer and more interwoven, we’ve somehow managed to become more isolated from each other.

Go figure.

I’ll have to give that a read.

From time to time, when I have a far away look in my eye, I find myself thinking about how different my life must be from my great-grandfather’s – and, in turn, how similar his peasant life was to his great (to the tenth power) grandfather’s.
