I think "can" implies a "cannot". Your "can" implies that the date range
must be set within those boundaries. I don't think that was necessarily

For years, I had done a graphic-heavy QuickStart Guide in FrameMaker
(7.1), then published to PDF (Acrobat 7).
This time, I revised and reworked in a new format (booklet), using
OpenOffice 3 Writer, and publishing through Acrobat 9.

You can choose to go against your nature, insofar as you are
aware of that nature, but you can't really choose your nature.
You can certainly affect it by means of strategies and practice,
if you find yourself motivated to do so, but fun

The salient point that I got from your post is that you are

In the context of relationships, pretty much all else
