  It's silly. Hubby explains it's more like  a socialization game
thing... its' not about suvival , it's about socializing.  (er
suriviving that I guess. )


BTW Carol? I'm reading a novel about 19tC Japan. The customs, times
and tea ceremony...

I read there's two Japanese alphabets. The one using the Chinese
characters, for men and the phonetic one for women. Why do they have
two? Is it because the one for women was meant as oral and not
written?

Also the author spent five years studying Japanese Tea Ceremony while
I understand the complexity (you learn as a host and as a guest)...
and all the different forms/techniques.. I'm amazed it takes fiv4e
years to learn? Do you know about this?

... I don't have a solution, but I do admire the problem.
