A sound alone betrays the flowing of the eternal fountain invisible to man." »Longfellow

My mind thinks because of you and I shall love because of you." »Andrew Schneider

Positive & negative, electromagnetic fields just circling each other. Positive, negative, north, south, male and female. Looking for that electric moment. Magnet to magnet, opposites attract." »Robin Green
