    So, your house is on fire

    In one little room in the basement, and you're upstairs working on your stuff online.

    You smell something burning, so you go check it out, when you reach the bottom of the stairs, you see that the flames have not spread that far, and you may be able to put it out.

    You also become aware of the fact that if you spend time trying to put the fire out, and you fail, it will spread too much and you will have to get yourself out alive at the last second and cannot save anything in the house.

    What do you do? Do you stay and fight the fire, and take the chance of putting it out, or do you go upstairs and grab your hard drives and everything else that is super important and call for help?

      I go with gut instinct and if it says I have a chance then I grab the fire extinguisher and put it out!

                  If you cant put out a little fire you are not a man.

                  I would stay and put it out.

                    That made me laugh.

                    The equivelant of saying "If you can't tackle a grizzly bear you're not a man"

                    Of course, then again, when I was formulating the idea, I was'nt thinking "little fire" ....I was thinking like, an entire section of a room, from floor to ceiling...

                    So you're off the hook.
