Why is this CRAP on this thread? Moderators, how about moving it to it's own thread and closing this one?
request denied :)))
The last TWO PAGES have had NOTHING to do with the original thread and that one is old news and has been dormant for months.
honestly several threads currently open players move with their discussion and the more they advance you realize there are several points being discussed what matters is that it is somewhat relevant
test & JEZ, why are you wasting your time trying to teach exxxe to sing? he hates it no matter what :))

Here is the entry for the Heinlein quotation in The Yale Dictionary of Modern Proverbs (2012), giving the context for the quotation: Never try to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time, and it annoys the pig. 1973 Robert A Heinlien, Time Enough for Love (New York: G. P. Putnam's Sons) 51: "...[A] fool cannot be protected from his folly. If you attempt to do so, you will not only arouse his animosity but also you will be attempting to deprive him of whatever benefit he is capable of deriving from experience. Never attempt to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and annoys the pig." In context, the point seems to be that it is fruitless to try to make someone what he or she cannot be. In part, the quotation is dismissive: After all, it starts by making the subject of the attempted improvement (or protection) a fool. But in part, there is also a degree of sympathy for the person who is supposedly being improved but in a way totally unnatural to his or her own talents and inclinations. A platypus can't be taught to whistle—whether or not it is too stupid to learn how—because its mouth isn't designed to form a shape necessary to produce musical notes.
As an FYI, DV and I exchanged several PMs on this and it seems he got the humor in it.
PC is going WAY to far. (Or can you "buy a vowel" for sapphires? LOL)
