Thank you both for your comments. What I learned from Paulo Coelho (The Alchemist, a MUST read!) Life (Kokomo) is found on the road, while LIVING, it is not a destination.

Just takes lots of practice, Gerardo. We've been flogging that BKL for years. After a while it just becomes second nature.

Sort of a Pavlovian reaction. We see a post by JJ Irani and we immediately have to hijack the thread and pound on him.
