  Well maybe.  However, I think I agree with the writer earlier this  
  week who wrote...

  Even when they describe their reasoning to me, too often, I have  
  absolutely no clue to the motivation behind people's actions.  This  
  forum is nice because people take the time to actually try to be  
  coherent and understandable, and I still have serious problems with  
  the translation to David-speak (which is the language of my mind).   
  While I may picture myself making the same choices as someone else,  
  too often that still brings me to a wrong understanding of their  
  feelings.

  On occasion I will see and understand something that no one else puts  
  value upon, or I might strive to get some grasp, any grasp on some  
  widely shared common opinion.  We humans have much in common with  
  each other.  Is it more or less than we have in common with other  
  animals?  I know the real answer, but somedays I just don't believe  
  it.  I don't mean to sound negative.  I just get frustrated sometimes  
  trying to understand my own species.  Since they vastly outnumber me,  
  they are the "norm", and that makes me the abnormal.  Is that "the  
  insanity within his head"?

  <emoticon>
  which one?
