That's an interesting theory. I could as easily theorize that your tendency to want to draw people into arguments so that you can "win" them is just your way of trying to impress your dead father, from whom the only positive feedback you ever got was for being "intellectual." But mine would be just the same as yours, an empty theory based on nothing we know for certain. Theories are like that...the theory and a buck-fifty will get you a bad cup of coffee at Starbucks. :-) ------------------------ Yahoo!
