	I post this article with the hope of finding happiness and a productive
	life.  That is to say,  that until I receive the answer to my question,
	I will pass through this life in contempt, and remorse. A veritable
	sociopath.
	There have been arguments on the net,  or `Loud Discussions` rather.		The discussions travel back and forth,  across this country of ours,
	gathering posters,  and gathering attention.  Every once in a while,
	I don't know if it's some spiritualistic thing,  or if the Moon is
	aligned just right,  but there always seems to be a certain person
	who posts the End-all posting.   The posting that is supposed to
	end all trivial conversation (as we know it),  and restore dignity,
	and respect to the Net.
	Now don't get me wrong...  I don't believe that the same person is
	making this statement.  It's more like a movement...  a radical
	organization,  based on the hope of nation-wide literacy and free
	beer for all.
	It has happened again, and I am dumbfounded.  In a stupor,  confused,
	in the third-person...

	" WHO THE HELL GIVES A SHIT????!!!! "

	That's it!  There it is again!
	The question taken in a literal sense, is rather rediculous!  It is
	quite obvious who gives a shit.  It would seem more appropriate in
	that context,  to ask who doesn't give a shit,  and then possibly
	refer the person to a physician.
	I then have to assume that the posters of this query are not being
	literal,  but have subtle undertones of synonisms,  or are cronically
	anacronous.
	Well,  I am uterly perplexed...  why would some one be interested in
	the regularity of other's bowel movements?  I have little or no trouble
	in this area if it interests you so.  I might suggest a mild laxative,
	or perhaps an enema depending on the severity of your encumbrance.
	Although I do not know you,  I don't like to see people suffer,  or
	even subject the persons in your working environment to a mass-deficant-
	upheaval,  due to stress,  or whatever your problem is.


	I jus' don' geddit!
