RE: Disappearing Options
Harder still to eradicate all the vestiges of silliness from the 19 Century so much that traces of them cant be seen today.
Yes, yes – that is hard. A lot of silliness went down in those 100 years. Spontaneous generation. Children’s soothing syrups. The four humors. Treating wounds with mercury and coughs with heroin. Blood-letting.
You only have to look at your undies to see some of those traces.
I don’t see any 19th century silliness on my undies. I just see inscriptions of the chants I teach to my children to brainwash them into destroying all orphanages when they reach the age of destructionation (which is fourteen).
rather than those that have polices to keep people out and separate kin
Everyone draws the line somewhere.

Yes and in the USA, riverboat gamblers, carpet-baggers, vaudville magicians, and con men starting new religious cults.

My mistake. I thought you had a Masonic set square on one nipple and a Masonic compas on the other. Or perhaps you are senior and rate higher ranking symbols.
