You are right as usual beelze, and to use a paraphrased saying from the good book itself, Jeremiah 5:21. King James Version:

Hear now this, O foolish people, and without understanding; which have eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear not

There are those too blind to see truth!

You is a breath of fresh air, Venerable. There's none so blind as those who will not see, eh? There seems to be a lot of FT's on this site bearing white sticks and tripping over Pink Room steps- blindly groping where all good men should fear to grope- treating all good Chinese girls like whores...and making them pay for their own noodles- spending their dotage without a woman's soft touch in strange and hostile Asian countries. How can we help these unfortunates?
