    fiskhus jim is a moron

    He makes the point (a few pages back) that choice is bad...in fact debilitating. I suppose we should all just marry the first member of the opposite sex we meet to save ourselves all that time and energy of trying to find the right mate. It's hard for me to remember the last time I heard something that idiotic. I'd rather be FREE TO CHOOSE.
