                I thought your last sentence was rather poignant! I look at the consistent efforts by people to come up with a summation of character! sam

                I Think that one should be able to  judge the motivation behind such an action. Perhaps such a person is just inclined to help. I have never had anyone help me who didn't want to unless we had negotiated or a payment was expected, I've had plenty of those.
