Its easy to speak from the "older wisdom" podium but that is not always correct....

You know, STX, that is what I enjoy about being "older". God and time have given me the "older wisdom" to know that I am not always right, but I know that according to aero-engineers bumble bees have too big of a body to be lifted by such small wings. Darn, theory hurts like heck when they crawl up and sting me. I won't try to convince you, but I know that if you live long enough, experience will.

Tom, I think agree with you mostly, but disagree that being older always gives you more wisdom. I am not a stone cold liberal like you think I am. I do not base everything on theory and principal. As I have stated before, I am a registered republican which may surprise you (although I am very unsure of my voting disposition this year ).
