Eric Roskos I agree with that definition entirely. But that also applies nicely to many married people, who seem incapable of identifying themselves separately from their spouses. It is as if neither one trusts the other enough to make friends independently. I have found it very difficult to become friends with married women because of this. Most of them just keep their distance. I dunno. Seems like a lonely kind of life, just you and the old man, forever and ever.... Best regards, Andy Cohill {allegra|ihnp4}houxm!whuxl!whts!amc
