I have equal respect to the philosophy man of books as I do for
the woman who collects 1000 shoes and knows all the particulars
of each brand and type... as I do for the 8 yr old with all the
Pokemon cards and knows all of the characteristics and
combinations of each.
and yes... even for the gossip who knows the ins and outs and
tales of all the neighbors.
All that stuff takes a lot of brainpower for detail. I give it
credit.
