This is a hard one to explain to 'other' people.... For one thing, who is the 'others' ? Class, culture, race, manners etc. etc. I googled in the city where I'm at, the city where Swords and Pest are at, the general area where I think Mock is at, and I have no idea where Henri is really at. I was trying to compare for reference.... What is our common reference, so that we can actually 'get' each other? I'm not sure that there is one. Especially to people that have never lived, or been anywhere else, except the internet..... |

It's not entirely clear but Richard Alpert appears to be one of the key members. Sorry.

I'm pretty sure as soon as Henry mentioned "titles" the common reference became non-existent. |

Lol, at Lost and the others...I really do need to watch that, and catch up. Just from reading you all, I wonder if that was a meme? And titles, for real. So, on a Class scale of 1 to 10, with the Queen of England being at the top..., starving children in Africa at zero..., where would you rate a doctor or a lawyer in Cinncinnati? |

my answer isn't what you're looking for, but i'd rate him/her on how well they treated themselves/the ones they love/ and especially those they hate. |

Actually, I agree with you, Morgue. All this other, it's really apples and oranges, isn't it? But, I can see where our frames of references get messed up, based on what we're used to. Right where I live, for example. So many big differences in perceptions of class and culture, based on education and types of occupation vs. financed property or family land. People visit, or move in here, from different parts of the country...and, they just don't 'get it'. People that have lived here forever, don't get them either. I guess everybody has got to feel better about themselves, some way. I heard the Queen of England's castle is cold and drafty, and her children have run wild.... |
