Amen! In my starving student days, I made great use of a window
and one light. Loved it! It was later that I realized that I'm not
bright enough to handle more that that. It was a blessing,
however. Guys and gals, both, look great using the above.

The precept: Judge not, that ye be not judged... is an
abdication of moral responsibility. It is a moral blank
check one gives to others in exchange for a moral blank
check one expects for oneself. The moral principle to adopt
is: Judge, and be prepared to be judged.
