Which begs the question of whether or not you'd rather have a "strange" mind.
Personally I'd guess we're all a little nuts being into sailing (or
powering...) to the extent we are!
And based on my own observations I would have thought that a lot more than 45
out of a 100 lack the "phenomenal power of the human mind". On this one, CT,
I'd be inclined to got with the 80:20 ratio you thought!

Hmmm, does this mean 55 of out 100 people have a “strange mind” and 45 out of
100 lack the “phenomenal power of the human mind”?
I always thought the ration was 80-20!! hahaha

Since we were discussing language, I though I would send along this
interesting piece.
