This is true, but that doesn't mean that we as humans revert back to
our superstitious state of mind and star ooh-ah'ing and dancing around
the bonfire while chanting the gregorian rite of life !
There IS a cause for this effect though we haven't a clue what drives
it, and the proof for this is seen in nature itself and the human body.

after one another, no one else will.
