Why We Love
As humans we attempt is to to increase our abilities and our effectiveness. To accomplish this we forms bonds and relationships with people within our communities. We often "fall in love" with people that we are attracted to and find appropriate for us; however, we also tend toward people who we perceive are also drawn towards us. Romances are often the result of an extended period of time with a person. This notion differs from the Hollywood romance ideal, "love at first sight." The two greatest characteristics that kindle a romance are kindness and intelligence. Although attractiveness does not hinder ones ability to form a relationship, kindness and intelligence lend themselves towards promoting long-term successful romances.

What is a Fact?
What is a fact? A fact is an "idea which is considered o be wholly and absolutely true." Through out our lives we are given facts to learn. As children we are taught 1+1=2 and that we should not question it. Most would agree this is an indisputable FACT. But why is this a fact, because a large consensus of people agree this is true. But what if you approached someone who knew nothing about our number system and showed them two apples and asked them how many there were, would they still say two? Does this mean they are wrong? Both parties obviously recognize the number of apples but quantify them differently. We are also faced with another dilemma when understanding facts, exceptions. An exception is something excluded from a general statement or does not follow a rule. If this is the case how can such a rule or fact still be true? Within the computer science world, an exception causes a program to branch to a different "routine," a different part of the program. Such a change indicates an error. In the daily program of our everyday lives, are exceptions errors in our daily routines? Facts are guide lines for our everyday life but do not define us. What might be true for one person may not be true for another. Although an exception indicates an error to the monotonous, lifeless computer, such an exception, a distinction in thought amongst humans, is not.
