Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Can you find a fail dog appropriate for this situation, tommy?
God, I think I just got officially re-addicted to photography. We don't want to know how much I've spent in the last 24 hours, and how much more I still see myself spending. But I need to get re-acquainted with the basics. Digital point and shoot has taken me away from the math of the whole thing, and I need to get back there.
My apartment is in a mess because of the whole photography thing. Tripods or light stands everywhere. It no longer looks like a home. I feel very unwomanly.

Wow. I thought the incest taboo prevented that sort of thing no matter whether you are actually related or not.

I was just trying to look up the same thing:
In the case of the Israeli kibbutzim (collective farms), children were reared somewhat communally in peer groups - groups based on age, not biological relation. A study of the marriage patterns of these children later in life revealed that out of the nearly 3,000 marriages that occurred across the kibbutz system, only fourteen were between children from the same peer group. Of those fourteen, none had been reared together during the first six years of life. This result provides evidence not only that the Westermarck effect is demonstrable, but that it operates during the critical period from birth to the age of six (Shepher, 1983).

Um... eww?
Try people commenting on your grocery cart--"Do you really think you should be buying that?"
So. Rude.
Appropriate response? "Thanks for reminding me, I need to buy new knives."
