May 16, 20241 yr Dear Folks, As I recently mentioned, I was once involved in the Fragrance Industry for a time, mostly essential oils, when I supplied guys like Horst with what he needed most. But, beginning long before that period in my life, I have always been an avid researcher of behavior, meaning not necessarily human behavior, but behavior, in general, mostly lab rats, in fact. And this is why I have often wondered about the SECRET SMILE, and whether or not it actually exists in the LOS. I am sure there are those reading my words who can tell me, and even attest to the fact from personal experience. Just this morning, I was again researching human behavior, my favorite Topic, now that I am older and have more time on my hands. Also, I spent several hours trying to recall a quite well-received film, partially about this SECRET SMILE, which is the Topic of this TOPIC. So then, what IS this Secret Smile that seems to be such a well-kept secret? Namely, without going into that much detail, I found a few entries while googling. I no longer use Bard, because Google requires me to sign-in to use Bard, these days, and that's, maybe, fodder for another good Topic. Take a look at these entries, for example, and feel free to pursue your own research, if you will: Of course, not only can one get this Secret Smile from a bike ride, but some say that horseback riding may lead to smiling, too. IMPORTANT NOTE: Concerning this Film, Secret Smile, this is not the film I am trying to recall, at the moment. I am trying to recall the movie in which there is a scene that looks like this image: So, if anyone can help out and JOG my aging memory, please do. The movie I am trying to recall is several decades in the past, the release of it, I mean. But, no doubt, the Secret Smiling still exists, although, I cannot attest to this...myself, for obvious reasons. Well, give it a thought or two, and let me know. Thank you. And, while you are pondering this Topic, have a listen to this great tune, now long forgotten by many, though not by me: Best regards, Gamma

As you know, in the distant past, I spent years researching LAB RATS, as a proxy for human behavior, humans like those who post Topics on TV. Human behavior IS WHAT IT IS: I make no value judgements. But this does not mean that I cease to be surprised by the constant variability of human behavior we see around us, everyday.

May 16, 20241 yr I thought the secret smile was a coded reference to the vertical smile (the one below the waist).

If you don´t mind, would you please elaborate on that and just involve everything that catches your interest regarding that, and how you deem it to be most interesting and why?

Ok, I almost got all of the other stuff. To be honest, maybe I missed some. However, why in the world would you like to get away from Windows. With that operating system there is zero compatibility issues. Sure, some say they collect information and there are a lot of spyware in the OP. YES! That is 100% true, but if you just take a little bit of time and surf the net, you will find out how easy and quick you can get rid of that. I can assure you, my Windows installation have absolutely no connection at all to Microsoft. I download my updates manually and have a software that monitor all the files being installed. Not one little piece of code get by unnoticed.
