Ha ha, hopefully, everybody noticed that I was referring the paradise lost Dossy was proposing.
But, in all fairness, I really didn't like Nirvana very much. I was a Pearl Jam fan.

No. I'm not. I've been attacked on the streets of Cincinnati by violents, and assaulted by a drug dealer in salt lake who 'really' wanted to make a sale.
I've been saved before by being careful on public thoroughfares. And I'll continue to be defensive, particularly when I'm out walking with my girlfriend.(yes, I know, silly pairing defensiveness. And my girlfriend is a double black belt, and any person attacking her would be making a terrible terrible mistake, but I continue to worry).

Indeed. Human suffering is an inexcusable environment and design flaw. I will do anything I can to attempt to banish or minimize suffering in all people. That's why I'm here(here in the here on these lists and this community sense, not in the larger metaphysics sense).
Small addendum, though. Humans don't suck, some of the things they do suck. I love people, but I hate some of the actions and decisions they make. Self-aware intelligence is(as far as we know) very rare, and precious. It should be protected by those who can.
