I understand it's serious. You don't exactly have to keep drilling that into my head. I am allowed to be curious. A lot of people who post are curious. That is why questions get asked...and answered. I also understand individual variation. However there are norms and trends that others might not be aware of. There's no need to be snippy. Good Lord. Cheer all you want. Boo all you want. It was just a question.
