Sorry, but that "reality check" doesn't work. The endless pursuit of getting laid is hard-coded into our biology. Which is not nessesarily a bad thing. Competition, evolution, survival of the species and all that. Women have the same sort of biologically driven desires (although they are more wary about getting laid, since propogation of their genes is riskier). If you had to pick, would you save the lives of a hundred anonymous strangers, or your only child? -- Tim Morton "One, Two, Three. Three victims! Mwahahaha!"
