Let me jump in and just say don't fucking question the rules here (or lack thereof) or we will have to make some that we enforce selectively when we feel like it.

I have always believed in the idea that you are in a local pub and you will deal with shit that people don't like from time to time but if you want a drink you deal with it. Having grown up with my mom owning a bar (years back for a short period), I can count on one hand the number of people she threw out. I think there is a balance and Daddy is at one extreme and this site is at the other.  I think the middle is always a bit better but believe in free speech until there becomes a point when the person is being abusive.

One of one's gods...

Ludwig Wittgenstein

From the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus:

• 3.328 "If a sign is not necessary then it is meaningless. That is the meaning of Occam's Razor."

(If everything in the symbolism works as though a sign had meaning, then it has meaning.)

• 4.04 "In the proposition there must be exactly as many things distinguishable as there are in the state of affairs, which it represents. They must both possess the same logical (mathematical) multiplicity (cf. Hertz's Mechanics, on Dynamic Models)."
• 5.47321 "Occam's Razor is, of course, not an arbitrary rule nor one justified by its practical success. It simply says that unnecessary elements in a symbolism mean nothing. Signs which serve one purpose are logically equivalent; signs which serve no purpose are logically meaningless."

and on the related concept of "simplicity":

• 6.363 "The procedure of induction consists in accepting as true the simplest law that can be reconciled with our experiences."

Per me si va ne la città dolente,
per me si va ne l'etterno dolore,
per me si va tra la perduta gente.

Giustizia mosse il mio alto fattore:
fecemi la divina potestate,
la somma sapienza e 'l primo amore.

Dinanzi a me non fuor cose create
se non etterne, e io etterno duro.
Lasciate ogni speranza, voi ch'entrate.

It is after all from a physics perspective the most stable & medically safe position.

OK, so there will be 3 people on the floor ?

In my bed there in NYC, as reported, one typically went to bed with two boi strippers in tow, and somehow woke up to pee a couple hours later and two more had come home to roost. 

Thank god it was a king-size mattress.

Need you ask!

It was a 'high-class' doorman building (this one, in fact: http://www.505w37.com/), yet the attendants knew to let any and all kind of creature in and up who came calling, without even the doorman calling my house phone in advance.
