In the land of the blind, the one eyed man must be killed first. --- You missed the point, which was that if there was a war on stupidity you'd be the first casualty. Probably because you'd be too stupid to realize that a war on stupidity was going on. Your analogy to the world of the blind is also stupid, because there's no way a sighted person in the land of the blind could be knocked off as sighted if he didn't want to be. It's also backwards because you're likening yourself to the one-eyed man in the land of the blind, when the truth is more like your a blind man in the land of one-eyed men. -- John Fields Professional Circuit Designer
