Someone who has heretofore proven trustworthy?

Lord Argyl of Lochdubh

Is asking a stranger for a favor considered taboo ?
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are---
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Lord Argyl of Lochdubh

would it make you uncomfortable for a stranger to ask you for a simple favor ?
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are---
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

When I do complete the simple favor will the stranger say thank you?

Would politeness count for points re: trustworthiness?

Lord Argyl of Lochdubh

what about integrity, doesn't that count for something ?
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are---
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Can a person look..."integral?" "Integretish?"

Lord Argyl of Lochdubh

just what exactly do you look for in a person ?
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are---
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

Doesn't it seem a bit intrusive to look inside a person?

laedyfaire

Looking inside a person may be intrusive but are the results worth it?

Lord Argyl of Lochdubh

Is it normal to question results one receives ?
We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are---
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.

RefMom3

Isn't that part of the scientific method?

Lord Argyl of Lochdubh

We are not now that strength which in old days
Moved earth and heaven, that which we are, we are---
One equal temper of heroic hearts,
Made weak by time and fate, but strong in will
To strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield.
