Just as a question, how many of you out there in the FFL audience still, to this day, light a stick of incense and then, to blow it out, either wave the stick in the air or wave your hand over it, to create a breeze that blows out the flame?
I caught myself doing this tonight. Immediately thereafter, I caught myself thinking, "WHY the fuck am I doing this? Does it really MATTER whether I blow this stick of incense out by waving my paw at it, Dogbert-like, or whether I blow it out with my human -- and thus so-much- lower-than-incense-deserves -- breath?" I was unable to come up with a satisfactory answer. So I pass it along to you in the FFL 'verse: DOES it make any difference at all whether we blow out a stick of incense by waving at it with our hands or blowing it out with our own breath? I don't actually expect anyone to answer, but I do suggest that the answers might have been interesting if anyone were interested in questioning the things we never question...
