Really? That's what I tell Chinese people when they see me use chopsticks and ask how I learned to use them. You see, I spent five years at a monestary in Tibet to learn to use chopstick, with my left hand, nonetheless. The first three years were spent meditating on chopsticks. Then for two years, I could use just one.

I wouldn't be surprised if Buddist and Catholic monestaries are substantially similar, except that one uses a fork.

It is really interesting that people can actually live in communes today (and for the last 2000 years at least) if one is at all religious. At times I think that communism was created simply to extend the concept and practice to the non religious.
