An interesting psychological difference. About 35 years ago, I asked my long since deceased father what would be his reaction to a duplicate. He was very quick to assert that they would not get along at all. I have always wondered at that: why exactly would someone not like himself? (Of course, the joke would be on me if I found out that all my duplicates had very annoying personal mannerisms, and that the very sounds of their squeeky high pitched voices irritated the hell out of me.) I have always imagined that my duplicates and I would embrace with a love truer than long-lost brothers. I fancy that I would like myself a great deal :-) Lee --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Everything List" group.
