...TLP, I'm seeing a level more irony than that.<br /><br />Nessa, have you been playing in the sheller again?<br /><br />Ariel, I think the joke in Bierce's definition was meant to be that men are curious as a virtue and don't like curiosity in women. But I agree with you in that female companionship can sometimes feel like a blizzard of question marks. Best not to press the issue.<br /><br />Bear, peace and coffee work at cross-purposes.<br /><br />Fair enough, Karen, and good advice to us all that most of us will never take.<br /><br />Amoeba, that's an interesting factoid. And your pun sounds like Quilly.<br /><br />Rio, I'm glad both seem to have multiple lives.<br /><br />Ha, Quilly. As you can see, I noticed that too. Pure Quilldancer.<br /><br />Jim, she's plenty clever and a poet. Poetry, I'm starting to think, might be harder on girls than curiosity.<br /><br />Karen, I wondered about that, probably.<br /><br />Sauerkraut, I'd have think that would have gone the other way. Clever.<br /><br />Cooper, I love "Curiosity is the nosiness of the intelligent."<br /><br />Thom, brother, I have no idea. <br /><br />Answering comments, K. You?<br /><br />Terry, I'm not sure.

Men, having thus discovered a population of women with curiosity and found a place of lodging for them, migrated to other fields, taking the money with them.
