Jim, generally true? or mundanely common? If I were a Pinto Bean farmer I
would say that Mexicans, in general, eat lots of Pinto Bean so I have a
market for my livelihood, but does every specific Mexican likes Pinto Beans?
Of course not but the generality still serves.
When speaking of specifics, generalities are little help, but they are not
worthless. Jim, I generally enjoy your posts.

Your idea is really closer to Aristotle than either the Bible or the
Upanishads, a very common, though erroneous, gloss put on them by those
with predispositions to making generalities...
