    Chuck made this comment not too long ago --

    >But then again, what does "really,
    >really" mean. Does an adequate theory qualify?

    'Really, really' means 'really, really' - a full list of all of their
    reasons and motivations and urges and stimuli.

    My personal 'adequate' theory of why I've done certain things at certain
    times unfortunately includes the empirical knowledge that I didn't have
    the first clue about some of the big, underlying, and prompting reasons
    for my behavior at the time....
