How convenient for us! If they had the sense to hide their feelings,
it would be easier to accidentally work for Og the Cave Man and his
Band of Neolithic Managers. One should always be on the lookout

radiate it like a blast furnace, while others have the aura of a band
of exhausted but dutiful galley slaves.
