    I don't know. I never had 'power'.  Well, except this really strong running race bike. It was the most powerful machine at the race that day. I beat the nation's top rider that day. (until I ran outta gas on the last lap)  I remained uncorrupted.

  • Power, like so many other things, can be used constructively. It's too easy to abuse and misuse it for personal gain. It's a fast lane to quick destruction for he who possesses it and he that's on the receiving end.

    I have a powerful gaming laptop. It is not corrupt. It rocks. I disagree with your generalized statement RosieG. ;)
