oftentimes people want two of something when one will suffice because they want their friends and neighboors to be jealous.

You are quite correct. Sad that a lot of them feel that need.

Freedom of choice because we want it and not necessarily "need" it. Kind of like owning two DSLR's when one will suffice. Why two? Because we want to.
Thank you for reminding me to charge my batteries.

Funny, I'd thought the only reason to have two DSLRs was for those who don't carry film backup at all times to never have to push a button, have nothing happen, and say, 'Yes, I take this photographic job seriously, but I'm unable to make any photographs at this time.'

Better sit down because I have a real shocker for you. Not all of us have jobs that require the taking of photographs! Matter of fact, I would bet that most people do not make their primary income doing photography.

Of course those of us that do have photography jobs would be well advised to carry a backup camera and a spare, fresh battery or two.

Don't worry Eric, you'll get used to Gooshin, we have.
Yeah, it's an acquired taste.
