I myself am a musician at heart. I also greatly treasure my sight, and use it daily. I would rather be mute than blind or deaf, as I'd rather find ways to communicate than give up my ability to hear music or see everyone.

To know, is to know you know nothing; That is the meaning of true knowledge. By three methods may we learn wisdom: First, by reflection, which is noblest; Second, by imitation, which is easiest; And third by experience, which is the bitterest. Want a good alliance? Try GATO, you'll be among the best.

I choose to blame CON for starting the trend of a bunch of uninvolved alliances making an announcements in regards to internal NPO issues.

Meh, I don't talk much anyway.

Dumb is too POLITICALLY INCORRECT.
I would choose mute if it also applied to my wife....Imagine not being able to tell her to SHUT UP!!! <hahaha>
Blind would mean never being able to participate in CN again.<gasp>
Deaf would be just too isolating(and dangerous)

Why fight? Let's just sit on the veranda with some Mint Juleps and work our problems out.

This strikes blind out of competition. Other than that I prefer losing a way to send out sounds than losing my only way to receive sounds. I think we are all voting for mute.

Doitzel, Count Doitzel Group: NPO Posts: 4,870 Member No.: 1,261 Joined: 21-March 06	This is a no-contest for mute. Everybody's going to pick it because there are other forms of communication. There is no alternative to hearing the carefully synchronised tunes of an orchestra; there is no substitute for gazing from atop a mountain and marveling at nature's beauty. -------------------- "The 'democracy gap' in our politics and elections spells a deep sense of powerlessness by people who drop out, do not vote, or listlessly vote for the 'least worst' every four years and then wonder why after every cycle the �least worst� gets worse." -Ralph Nader Say something I don't like and so help me mommy I will report you on twisted interpretations of the rules.

Seeing as I'm going the blind and deaf route currently, I'll go for the trifecta and vote for being mute. Also, if Doitzel ever went mute I'd cry. He has an angelic voice.
