When someone is honestly 55% right, that's very good and there's no use wrangling. And if someone is 60% right, it's wonderful, it's great luck, and let him thank God. But what's to be said about 75% right? Wise people say this is suspicious. Well, and what about 100% right? Whoever says he's 100% right is a fanatic, a thug, and the worst kind of rascal. -An old Jew of Galicia

Amen! And I'm 100% right about that! ;-)
I know something with 100% certainty:
It was grand meeting you in Paris. You were a fun person to have in the group and we were all sad you had to leave before us.
You gonna write about it??
