A. couldnt agree more with this statement
B. In the context of the conversation (revenge) doing nothing is not taking action it does not lead to vengence it maybe that bob did not percieve my actions as requireing a reaction which demonstrates my point it is the orginal action that causes a reaction emotion is secondary you know why someone stabs a guy 10 times or 50.

I look forward to future discussions and your respnse to this post perhaps more people will get involved so we are not just trying to convince each other
