  I was manning a cart not long ago. O, aye:)

  A man, who I suspect is familiar with this site comes to me. He asks: Do you really believe that the Bible is the best guide in life? I answer: I do believe it is book from God but there are things I do not understand.

  Then we have half an hour long conversation on the law etc. It was interesting. And then he asks me to explain the generation and , particularly, what overlapping is. I answer that I can't explain as it is something I don't comprehend myself. The man shakes my hand, says that he understands and respects my point. And he leaves.

  True story. A pioneer couple herd the conversation and commented that it was the best to say as it is not possible to explain overlapping generation with the Bible. They have been in many different fulltime activities for 3 decades.

  I think GB knows that what they expressed is very common attitude amongst R&F

  Drop the microphone and exit the stage.

  I believe that if a person studies this image closely enough, they will be able to come to a true understanding of the overlapping generation doctrine:

  Can you perhaps not find something better to do? Water your geraniums or rearrange your music collection into alphabetical order?

  Thank you Perry a photo speaks more than a thousand words .Generation WTF solved.

  I think the song"Another brick in the wall" describes it just as well.

  After all bricks in a wall overlap each other.

  Welcome Closed and well done for seeing the daylight!

  That is an apt visual Perry, here we have an instance of something substantial made from overlapping things which stands on its own. Unfortunately, although the GB explanation is very flimsy and light it still collapses under its own weight.

  Yes, the pattern is overlapping circularity, but it is still bovine excrement, a whole heap of it.

  It stinks the same no matter how you arrange it.

  Do the bovine do that themselves or does some dude in the woods do it for them?
