Now that is an understatement.

No you/we are not, its just that we usually are too busy getting somwhere,
learning something while other busy themselves keeping everyone down so that
they seem to be bigger than they are.
There may be more of them that there is if us, but then again, they will
always be less leaders than troups.
'nough said. Hope to 'meet' you on another thread.
Have a nice day.
