Hi Humbleme, That is a very good point. You know I never have thought of it that way before. I suppose it does make sense if you're curious than that is venturing into the unknown and therefore there is no reason to fear the unknown anymore. Very good, Humbleme. I'll have to remember that for next time when I fear the unknown.
