I LOVE conspiracy theorists. They are like human versions of the cymbal clapping, dancing monkeys. No one takes them all that seriously and they get bored with them after about 10 minutes.

I like it, but is the Compassion/Avarice meant to be one of conflicting ideals?
Believe me buddy...some of them, were hard to accomodate...and while Hope and Fear I had cancelling each other out, it was more of a case of imagining a scenario where a person in a situation of danger has neither hope for miracle nor fear for their life, thus is apathetic to it all.
As for Compassion/Avarice, I don't see the emotions themselves as being as opposed to each other as FEAR/HOPE...in fact, that they are further from the center of the spectrum is no coincidence.
The logic for that one was that usually FRUSTRATION comes when you want something (avarice?) but can't have it...but you don't exactly reach the point of RAGE or baseless HOPE...so Frustration seemed to be about as subdued an emotion as I could fit in....especially since Frustration comes with a subtle understanding of ones limitations (compassion?)
It's a bit of a stretch but hey...I only had yesterday morning to come up with it!
