   Poor bastard. He can have SOME OF MINE to make his text more recognisable.   
      
   I hate it when nutters aren't allowed to use the capital letters nature   
   intended them to have. It's bad enough that there's no green ink on   
   Usenet without that.   
      
   --   
     It may be objected, that many who are capable of the higher pleasures,   
   occasionally, under the influence of temptation, postpone them to the   
   lower. But this is quite compatible with a full appreciation of the   
   intrinsic superiority of the higher. Men often, from infirmity of   
   character, make their election for the nearer good, though they know it   
   to be the less valuable; and this no less when the choice is between two   
   bodily pleasures, than when it is between bodily and mental.-- J.S.Mill
