	I agree with "Felix" that sometimes sex (or lust, as the case
	may be) can be a motivator for meeting a new person.  Is this
	possibly a case of the ends, meeting someone, justifying the 
	means, being physically attracted to a person enough to build
	up the necessary courage to actually approach the person.  This
	is not meant to imply that I only meet people who are physically
	attractive to me but when you know nothing else about a person,
	what else is there to motivate yourself to go over and meet them?

	There are occasions when I have met someone with whom I simply
	share a "mind set".  This leads to many interseting and varied
	conversations.  To me, these relationships can be the most
	rewarding.

	Henry L. Hall
