    It's fun having ideas.

    Grown-ups, however, form beliefs and (what passes as) knowledge on the basis of observations and verifiable facts.

    Now you folks probably don't know it but I am a man of experimentation and am certainly willing to try anything once. After all, variety is the spice of life eh?
