    but... what's the point of living mentally in the future with your body in the past?

    that sounds like a chat up line

    Sorry. I was just trying to be funny - or stupid.

    To be honest I never gave it much thought, but after thinking a wee bit about it I have to agree with you.

    Constitutions (long inextricable boring pieces of paperwork) become obsolete in a few years. Unless they're kept to a minimum (like detritus said: no more than a A4) they tend to freeze rights, duties and institutions more than preserve them in a lively manner. That's true.

    it's probably like smoking or not:

    the thought of quitting doesn't make any sense to you - you know that it is killing you, but you can't picture your life without it - whereas if you don't smoke you can't figure out what drives so many people into some expensive absolute nonsense.
