Michael Shepherd - In reply to your irate comment...

...well, yes, I agree the 'Comment' box is for comments - but hold on - br I'm sorry, but I'm not sorry... br yes, growing up in the Bible Belt br must be purgatory with only heaven and hell br I mean who reads Dante? br just don't unload it all on me, OK? br br I guess I should try to explain myself br (this could be a long one, br like the others I pass over on this site, br who's got time for Byron or Browning or Milton?) : br br Trying to make sense of this world br in the allotted time, ho ho, br I've found it helpful in the mind br - though I'm not 'religious', br but not aggressively irreligious I hope; br but still rather pressingly interested br in life and death, that sort of thing - br the concept of some possible unity br through love, Providence, order, law br (the Sun doesn't take a day off) br call it what you will br (or not - the Indians have spent br thousands of years on this sort of language) br and the possibility of finding br things related in some way through br something more than Chaos Theory br (as in a teenager's room) br or Evolution from two atoms br (by Whose law, huh?) - br br (are you still with me?) br br so that as in the most beautiful br metaphors and analogies br that poets delight in, br you and I and butterflies br and blue jays br and the smell of Spring br and yes, love - br are in some way related... br br I think I'll stop there.
