"Narrow"?  I'm wounded... (Ok, maybe not :) )

It is true that I tend to restrict my definition to the more tangible 
aspects, since what is "authentic" behavior for Diarmuit is not always
conducive for *Marc's* general happiness (much less his marriage :) ),
and may well be not acceptable within the restrictions of the Society
for Compulsive Apostasy.

It is my understanding that the Lions are awards for the Zenith in 
playing one's Persona, which need not be the same as authenticity
(I'm certain to be corrected on this).
