ORIGINAL: marieToo egads! You got a whole system going on there. lmaoo You see, right now it's a conceptual sum. I am looking for a kinky mathematician so we can devise a set of equations to describe it. Ya know, I'm thinkin somethin like this. Net Compatibility = Weight of Factor A* Factor A coefficient + Weight of Factor B*Factor B Coefficient...... I am hoping for a Nobel Peace Prize once all is said and done. ;-) Joking aside, the point I wish to convey is that I don't think compatibility is a black and white matter. I think it is a complex, cumulative result of many factors that have varying degrees of importance for different people. My analogy to a sum is an attempt make an abstract concept less abstract. To make it less abstract yet, I can liken my concept of it to a weighing balance. Imagine that for each factor relevant to compatibility, some amount of beads are put into either the plus or minus side. The point I wish to make is that for a given factor important for compatibility, it is not black and white (it's not that you either put a bead or you don't but that you can put beads in varying amounts), and that even if a factor important for compatibility is missing (beads are added to the negative side or no beads are added), other factors can still compensate and bring compatibility. And, finally, I think compatibility is also not binary but has a range. Cheers, Sea
