    How are You?
    Gary talks of responding to questions about,"How are You?" As always, I say ,"Excellent." When my doctor asks, I say, "Excellent, unless you tell me otherwise."

    Tacit understanding
    We are drawn and keep on coming back to this site because of tacit understanding, the subtle feelings among us we can tell and appreciate. And this is exactly the reason why we’ve been posting on this board offering our own experiences to help each other fighting RCC. Live long and prosper everyone (\\///) so that new comers can learn it from us.

    Phatic expression
    Funny, Fox - substitute 'Fine' for excellent and you have the formula I use too (although I'm sometimes not quite as succinct :) ).
