Only the paranoid survive
                  Andy Grove
Definition

Paranoia is an unfounded or exaggerated
distrust of others, sometimes reaching
delusional       proportions.    Paranoid
individuals constantly suspect the motives
of those around them, and believe that
certain individuals, or people in general,
are "out to get them."
we’re not paranoid but........
