Ok I don't need logic to open my mind to you. It is my choice. Not a logical choice, not a linear or non-linear choice, not a random choice, not a mathematical or scientific choice... just a choice. You are welcome to write in it whatever you want or can when I'm here, and I'm going to call it Seattlegal's. I don't have to do that, and it is not available to everyone. If a rational reason is required then I hereby make the law for myself that I will listen to people from Seattle when I'm in Seattle. That pertains only to Seattle and does not disclude other people from around the world, nor does it disclude me from finding more insane laws to follow for other people that I don't know.

Probably, since I consider myself to be above my head and you to be above yours. I'm not speaking of any geometric reference either.
