Re: OT: Salve to Phyllis cont'd & Opinion Poll for All on "Evil"
Inflexibility. It is the mother of all evils, including ignorance, the monistic pursuit money, intolerance, fanaticism, monotheism, chauvinism, lack of humor.
And a note concerning money: I agree with Nan that money is a worthwile means, but by no means is it an end. The most precious resource is time. A screwed-up choice in the work-leisure trade-off martix will only make shorter of breath.

Yep, inflexibility is right up there with excess as the mother of all evils, along with all those other evils you mentioned -- especially a lack of humor.Which, in essence, can all be summed up in a single, definitive word:"Uncoolness".Uncoolness, therefore, is "the root of all evil." :)-- Nanaea
