I don't think a beard always means wise. :) #476762

Okay, but even a white and long beard doesn't mean wisdom - wisdom is contained inside the head. There could be a young person who is wise, and there could be an old person who goes around without a shirt and never grooms himself, and allows his picture to go around the world, lol! :) Wisdom depends on two things: the rate at which one learns things (wisdom, not just knowledge, is gained by experimentation, observation, reading, etc.), and how long one has been learning. From this picture, I wouldn't suggest that learning from this guy or looking up to him as a body of wisdom. :) And what are you saying in Indian? Insulting me? ;) Saying that what you are saying in English is just to brush me off? LOL. :) #2985216

I give up Ariel :-)No and in no way am I insulting you:-) It's just thanking Tarun for his compliment to me in Hindi.And I for one love healthy discussions.:-) #2986388

Okay, good. I just don't know Hindi! (And sorry about that mistake - I totally forgot that that language is named after the religion, not the country! Kind of like the way Hebrew isn't called Israeli.)

I love healthy discussions, too. :) I just wasn't sure if you do, so I was a little worried. *sigh* #2986627
