I respectfully disagree, Daniel.
I was responding to Scottie who asserted that one cannot have class without
age. Class is a measurement of character, regardless of age. Class is, to
refute your analogy, much more useful and meaningful than chalking one's
hands. A more appropriate analogy might be comparing class to a full
toolbox as opposed to the man who only has a hammer. And, remember, if your
only tool is a hammer, then all problems appear to be nails.
