I knew an engineer about 30 years ago who once said to me that he much
preferred dealing with machines and equipment because he could figure
why they did what they did, but he could not do the same with people.

I was young and naive then and didn;t really understand what he meant at
the time, but I think I do now.

In general people are unfathomable! But as you say, that makes life
interesting and exciting if at times frustrating!

There, I've offended the whole world now:-)

Regards,
Tony.
