Re: A thought exercise on "Eleanor"
Sense and Sensibility? Elinor has got more sense than Marianne, but that's about it. Eleanor Rigby? She'd probably have jumped at the chance to be maternal, but no luck. I was at school with two: one became an electrical engineer, and the other was a talented pianist who discovered a new mushroom while doing a Biology project!

I've never read/watched Sense and Sensibility (its not my thing) so I don't have that connection, but that's probably where the sensible maternal traits come fromBoth of your Eleanor's sound cool! I've never met one personally
