a tad dismissive especially following my first post....the you in the original question is the individual and the veiws/experiences/perceptions of those of us who wish to share them. this forum is about nature and to rationalise the natural world is to spoil the mystery and wonder that is the the essence of nature and life. everybody who replied to this question gave the correct answer. . . as they experience it.
