hampered by too many preconceived notions, if they are interesting, if
they are fun, if they are educated (and a few have done a darn good job
of educating themselves with little formal education--and a discussion
with them quickly will disclose that), etc, etc...

I have found about 3-5 out of a hundred are worth a persons time, out in
the general world--usually, at work that ratio comes close to a 50-50%.

I think that is a fairly accurate take on it--a person mileage may vary
with location and type of employment, of course in heaven I suspect this
ratio would be much higher, and in hell it would drop to zero...

Keep it up "John", we all enjoy the gigglers you toss out.

I have long suspect the majority of the people are your superiors, after
all, you are one who thinks a hobby license is a great achievement, I find
it akin to graduating kindergarten... have you always missed when
educated men smirk and laugh behind your back? Think about it man... you
didn't ever really fool anyone--they were just trying to be nice...
