You seem to miss the point Prentiss.  You can feel anything you
want about symbols, however, deriding someone who does feel good
about symbols is childish and immature.  The Genji person was
doing just that.. If someone wishes to express how they felt when
one of the "symbols" turns them on, accept it as their way of life.
To put the person down for their feelings about their country, school,
girl friend, or whatever is just plain asinine.  I don't give a hoot
how someone feels about symbols, just don't put me down or tell me
I am wrong for feeling that way.  If I feel like expressing my
feelings, I will.  If people don't want to read about it, then
push 'n'.
