About 20%-40% of days off on any schedule works best as far as work efficiency goes. And that 7 day thing isn't christian or even jewish, belonging to civilisations at least as old as Babylon and Sumeria, but due to being shared by Hindu peoples probably originating in some old sanskrit or older community. And, it's not universal. Many societies have different week lengths, from 3 to 8 days. It's mostly dependant on how often makes a good frequency of market days. It's only in these times where anglo-saxon culture has dominated other societies that the 7 day week has propogated around the globe. Al

From: Yap on 19 Aug 2008 05:33 Why did they hold you as prisoner? You must have been speaking nonsense to them that they viewed you as unsuitable to go out in the open? You see, even your parents found you to be too ill. rbwinn wrote: > On Aug 18, 8:22�pm, Yap <hhyaps...(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > Yes, the cause of your problem is with V.A. psychiatrists. > > They should be patient enough to try to cure your sickness or lock you > > up indefinitely, instead they took the easy way out to allow you to > > escape. > > > Actually, the first time I was in the V.A. hospital, I was a voluntary > patient.

From: Yap on 19 Aug 2008 05:45 But why did he not indicate a specific time to return? So he kept you and all your loony friends hanging high and dry? And in staying in another planet far away, you prayers to him will be wasted, right? rbwinn wrote: > On Aug 18, 7:59�pm, Yap <hhyaps...(a)gmail.com> wrote: > > Oh, yes. > > There are plenty of people waiting to discuss with him for more than > > 2000 years but he keep hiding. > > When is he supposed to come? > > Please give a very specific date.
