kbordson 8 #52 February 24, 2008 Interesting articles. Thanks for posting those. So... being "not unhappy" might be better than being "happy". . . . hmmmm. I don't know that I'm willing to go that far yet. The problem is that the "not unhappy" types are more exhausting to be around..... (on that note.... I'm placing Moldova on my places NOT to visit list) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
