@911jbg "I listened to this on BB AV and radio." What does that mean? Please explain.

I would actually say Epicurus was on to something with his doctrine of living life to the fullest. As long as you do not deprive another living human or (animal) organism of their right to life or liberty, than an individual should have the right to live as they see fit. I would think Jefferson would have no problem with this key philosophical truth.
