   What does this have to do with love?  That was a very complicated
way of saying that though I might "love" one person more than I do
another, most of the time, I simply can't compare how I feel to one
to how I feel for another.
   
   It is impossible to, say, rank Crystal among my other close friends.
Or Barbara.  Or Wolf.  I love them all in unique ways, for their unique
characteristics.  (And I do NOT accept the idea that if you have an
ordering on a set, there must be a "highest" element in the set.)
