Wait until you experience adolescence, Paul -- these days are EASY.  You can
pick them up and put them where you want them.  And precious.  Adonai is not
malevolent -- but capricious, I'll give you.

But the then the article goes on to talk about 4 MONTH old babies. This is
HARDLY "a few days old".  Of course, maybe the definition of a 'few' has
changed since I was a kid. I know a lot of people use 'a couple' to mean
what a few used to mean. Personally, i would say 120 days is 'many' more
than just a few.

now dealing with a 14 day old and starting to believe in a capricious,
malevolent old-testament G_d,
