   If you can learn to play guitar, fiddle, and keys, you can learn to fly, and   
   it's not all that complex either, just involved, which quickly becomes very   
   familiar.

   I prefer to go to a store and actually look at what I'm planning to buy and   
   check it out right in the store before I buy it.

   That's precisely why it's so important to understand them.

   You you don't take seriously, not trusting and allowing RATS to 'protect'   
   your cheese?

   That's Insane overcomplication.

   But for WHAT Purpose? That's the question.   
      
   > have you given all your posessions away yet ?   
      
   That's NOT what a gift economy is about i.e. giving *all* possessions away,   
   but giving, absolutely, and I've done it many times.

   That's kind of how I go about it. I'll work with other bands but the band   
   that really matters is The Difference.
