12. paulsby, as much as i admire the independent spirit you talk of,
in general, humanity really has to start thinking in ways of joining with together with those who are mature enough to place a premium on working together and cooperating. the earth's natural resources and our growing proximity to each other because of overpopulation will almost require it someday soon, if not now. i don't put a premium on an independent spirit when people acting as lone wolves only consider themselves and not the impact of what they do on others, and who consider helping or being helped a weakness. It's kind of a macho, cowboy viewpoint that doesn't serve us well today in the world we live in with the problems we have.
