Evidently there were more than two type of people. There are those who feel 50 years is long enough; there are others who feel that five years is long enough; there are likely others that feel 75 or 30 or some other values are long enough. Then there are also those who feel that any finite length is probably not long enough.

There are two types of people: those who feel 50 years is too short, and those who feel it is too long. Fifty years is much better than five, which was the previous limit. -- Doug Ewell | http://ewellic.org | Thornton, CO 🇺🇸
