the amount of empathy a  forum has is proportional to the number of lawyers who are members? Who would have guessed? :D

Well, for truely impressive empathy, one usually looks to accountants ...  :P

Like DGul.

I drank because I wanted to drown my sorrows, but now the damned things have learned to swim.

Fuck empathy.
I have come to believe that the whole world is an enigma, a harmless enigma that is made terrible by our own mad attempt to interpret it as though it had an underlying truth.

He's an actuary.

Like an accountant, only moreso.  :P

numbers have no feelings to emphasize with. Mix an account with a lawyer, though, and you get Enron. We should not mix :lol:
