Mr. Beaty! Mr. Beaty. Groked called me a "Fella", and... and... then he called me "Jack!" Make him STOP!!!!! Meanwhile, you have yet to answer my question, Grok: What makes you happy? So far, the only answer you seem to have offered up is that I have generally not examined "the System" that I have allegedly "profited" from. What does such analysis have to do with my original question? What does -my- alleged ignorance of the facts have to do with avoiding the simple question: What is -your- happiness? >From what little you have offered up it would seem that you have pinned all your hopes (a definition of true happiness) towards the future - A brave new world when communist societies flourish world-wide.

I think a salient question to ask here might be: If one is allegedly at the top of the heap, what are they going to do with their fortune. Silver spoon in the mouth or not, will they leave the world a better place than the one they were born into? Regards Steven Vincent Johnson www.OrionWorks.com www.zazzle.com/orionworks
