Louis: Eckhart saw Hell too. He said: The only thing that burns in Hell is the part of you that won't let go of life, your memories, your attachments. They burn them all away. But they're not punishing you, he said. They're freeing your soul. So, if you're frightened of dying and... and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the earth.

No. I answer questions that you ask me. People can be attached to themselves too. There is another word for it. 8)

No, then I think I'd have to say something like: "Ohhh, Bill, what 'ave you dun now...?"

And I generally prefer bricks and mortar as my method of murder. Amontillado is, of course, the preferred bait.

The nature of human ingenuity has always been to create something they could not use then have to create another way just to use it. The can came first of course. Then came a smashed can. 8)
