Hi slowpro -
They are whys. A how would be more in depth , such as How does gravity work on the rock. That would take a much longer answer. Why is easier.OK - so you took a couple HOW questions and stuck a "Why" in front of them. That still doesn't make them WHY questions but if you want to think it does then go right ahead. I like your answers though. Definitely more succinct than anything I could come up with.
The rock drops because gravity acts on it. There doesn't need to be any deeper answer than that. Human concerns and philosophies have zero to do with it. Ditto for the reason life exists.
If you need more reason (and by the way I do to) for your own personal sanity then that's great. That's what religion, phlosophy, the arts, sex, love and ice cream are for.
Let's not argue too much, I think we basically agree. After all we both have VXs.
P.S. Isn't it weird where this thread has gone? I bet Anita thinks we are loons.
No but in some circles it probably means you are having a good time on a Friday night.I'll say this about all you Bush lovers ...Sticking feathers up your butt does not make you a chicken.
