      It's mad. I do wonder if it's a reverse psychology thing, jealousy and all that. The interest is there but at the cost of green eyes and a chip on one's shoulder.

      If I dislike things as much as the muppets claim to, I stay away, I don't fret about what "they" are up to. (And my memory isn't as selective either)
