in thread Script or program?

Huh... it reminds me of something that when I was 8 years old that a 93 year old man in my town told me that has stuck with me for years. He said: "notice that you have 2 ears, 2 eyes, and only one mouth. I think that means the Great Spirit meant for people to observe and listen with their ears twice as much as they talk."

Yes. He was an American Native but I'm not sure what tribe/nation he belonged to.

Program or script? I agree with zentara. I make no distinction between them in the context we are speaking of.

    I read something similar in a Peanuts cartoon once. Charlie Brown was talking to Linus and said: "You have two ears and one mouth, therefore listening is more important than talking. You have two eyes and one nose, therefore seeing is more important than smelling." At that point Snoopy came racing thru and knocked both of them over. Afterwards, Linus said: "And four legs?" to which Charlie Brown replied: "I guess running is more important than anything." :-)
