It depends on the circumstances.  The predefined sq ALWAYS defines the
possible responses to hot-stove sitting, and sometimes its even best to stay
on a hot stove on purpose.  So I sure don't look at sitting on one as
necessarily, "involuntary".

How 'bout, DQ is the evolutionary drive, and SQ the evolutionary results?
That makes sense all ways around, doesn't it?


John,

Just now catching up on his back reading.
