Sorry, but I suppose there is an ugly thing I should add, geocrasher. It remains very unfortunate that I came to pick a simile about hunger not knowing about your past - to signify in perching_aix's case that abstincence better be voluntary and in yours that loss of something achieved remains a bad thing. The ugly thing: about "having no idea what I'm talking about", we are both in this world together - and the rest. We all have seen hell and misery, in the different forms that chance and the evolution of facts inflicted us. I felt immediate participation to your story. Do not suppose, for good or bad, that you are an exception. We all have seen and lived the most horrible things.
