For one never        knows that even in the future no experience will be encountered        which contradicts its consequences; and still other systems of        thought are always conceivable which are capable of joining        together the same given facts."                            --       Paul              https://paulba.no/              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
