know what to do? (if you know what I mean, wink wink)]<<<<<

Or get blown up in?]<<<<<

>>>>>[And anyway, old enough? Depends on how you look at it. You could
take her intellectual maturity level. In which case she's an adult, and yes,
shouldn't have behaved like that. You could take her apperant physical age,
in which case an entirely different response would have been appropriate
(but highly frowned upon. ahem.) You could take her actual age of 11
years, in which case hitting a boy is perfectly acceptable. Or you could
consider the ammount of time she's lived in the real world. That is, not
in a vat, on the operation table, or recieving intensive instructions in a
highly controlled node of the matrix. 'Real life' age is about 3 years.
Which one do you choose, Grimm?]<<<<<

much.]<<<<<
