And if you were one of those many, many humans, that wouldn't be physically
painful?

Actually, Robin, I wasn't using the clinical meaning of the word, which I
know full well it is not. I was usig it to refer to the idea of being
hopeful for the death of many, many humans - possibly including YOU! Just
another of those things being better at the unambiguous language I'm on this
list to discuss would have made clearer - if I had said it in lojban. there
would have been no question.
