  1. Baffled in New York by fizban · · Score: -1, Redundant

    I'm just trying to figure out why, with all the serious and meaningful work still to do in our world - things that will really have a strong impact on our lives - that people with this kind of talent waste it on dumb-ass kooky stuff? I mean, it's cute and all, but why not help create a better world with your smarts, rather than wasting time?

    Ms. Landers, you comments please?
