    What's stopping you?

    And going back to the subject of religion, you say you're not religious but would you regard yourself as having any spiritual belief system? I'm thinking particularly about the re-incarnation idea which you've mentioned a few times; this is a thought which comes from Eastern religions like Hinduism and Buddhism.

    If British culture is a genetic trait, then how do you explain the current state of America? No, I'm afraid my experience and upbringing tells me that Britishness is not a genetic trait, but a social and cultural phenomenon, as shown by the effect of British colonial values, for example, on many anglophiles within Indian society....

    Are you a morning person or a night owl? Which season do you like the best and why?

    NIght owl, and I like autumn and spring, but actually like all the seasons, really Al

    Britishness could well be a social phenomenon rather than a genetic trait u are right PP.

    Am very spiritual, though follow no particular path; lithium. What's stopping me is money. I haven't got any of the stuff. Most likely never will acquire much either.
