Carl I dont know if you remember a thread a while ago regarding how few women are into astronomy....the general overtone of the discussion was that different strokes for different folks. Some people are into cars, or clothes, or decorating houses, computers, art...or even astronomy or the universe that we exist in.....the list is not finite.

I think that the degree of someones insularity is probably a simple reflection of their life experience (combined of course with a whole gammut of sociological and psychological factors as well...okay not so simple)....so the different strokes for diffrent folks is an interaction of many influencing factors.

I also think that if more people took the time from their overstimuilated lives to look up and out the world would be a much better place.
