    I know this kind of silence. My assumption is that it arises out of a deep need to maintain control, but does it?

    Thought provoking.

    Randy, thank you very much!

    Mary Ann, hm, I never thought of "giving the silent treatment" regarding this quote, but on second thought you might be right. Hm. Have to think about that. Have a nice weekend!

    I remember the verses of the great poet Antonio Machado, the speech of an old tree...

    Excuse that he writes in Spanish:
    ¡El olmo centenario en la colina
    que lame el Duero! Un musgo amarillento
    le mancha la corteza blanquecina
    al tronco carcomido y polvoriento.

    Roberto, thanks very much for this. I think I can get the meaning with the help of google translate, no problem.
