I am confused

None of us may ever be able to eliminate the inane. So should we just act like it does not exist?

No, we should not ignore it, but we need to be aware there can never be
a complete victory to eliminate it either.

What I have learned is that for every person who took your or my attempt to educate to heart and told you so, 20 others also gleaned from it. Of those you will probably never know who put it to use. My question is, does it matter.


[/ QUOTE ]

No, it should not matter. You do things not necessarily for the reward, but
because it's the best thing to do.

[ QUOTE ]

Our world is too focused on proving something was quantifiable so that we can assure it is worth our future efforts or resources.


[/ QUOTE ]

We like to think our efforts have some sort of worth---- it's just that some
things are harder or almost impossible to quantify and no one wants to just
be spinning their wheels.

I am at times an unworldly old man, and I like it that way.

As long as you are happy, that's what counts.

Take Care Mike--- will keep in touch.

Are being fought in the PM's..and in the e-mails.. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

Because it's like...a few dogs fighting who are both on leashes...and at any time,...an owner can yank his dog from the fight.......but the dogs still want to fight,...so they howl & bark at each other from across the street..

If that puts it into perspective for you.. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]

don't be cornfused (misspell intentional). I firmly believe that some people are hard wired to be what they yam. Not intellectually crafty and divinely insipid. . . er inspired as the rest of us. So what can you do. Ignore'm!! Check for purty pitchers and if they ain't there go to the next post.

I have no idea what went on, and have no desire to find out. I generally skip most of the "dialogue" here, except when there's some interesting questions being answered. To be honest, I didn't read even half of your post... enough to realise I don't care about forum politics...

I come here to learn about photography, to see some great images, and find out how the masters do things... the rest is just inconsequential... Bickering over rubbish is not my idea of fun.
