Some people are totally autistic like that. Others are ADHD and cannot concentrate on any single thing. Most people however, are somewhere in the middle. They cannot get obsessed with anything.

I insult people all the time, simply because I say something the wrong way, or just don't think it is insulting. I don't intentionally say anything to anyone that is offensive unless they first said something to me. I honestly didn't think what I said to you offensive. </DIV> <DIV><BR>"Any opinions about whether or not banking, financial, and governmental <BR>institutions should change their policies regarding consular IDs, as <BR>opposed to blocking the entire consulate from being placed in this<BR>state?"</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>That is what they have now in Boise already.
