> The House of 1000 Mirrors

> Long ago in a small, far away village, there
> was a place known as the
> House of 1000 Mirrors. A small, happy little
> dog learned of this place
> and decided to visit. When he arrived, he
> bounced happily up the stairs
> to the doorway of the house. He looked
> through the doorway with his ears
> lifted high and his tail wagging as fast as
> it could. To his great
> surprise, he found himself staring at 1000
> other happy little dogs with
> their tails wagging just as fast as his. He
> smiled a great smile, and
> was answered with 1000 great smiles just as
> warm and friendly. As he left
> the house, he thought to himself, "This
> is a wonderful place. I will come
> back and visit it often."

> In this same village, another little dog,
> who was not quite as happy as
> the first one, decided to visit the house.
> He slowly climbed the stairs
> and hung his head low as he looked into the
> door. When he saw the 1000
> unfriendly looking dogs staring back at him,
> he growled at them and was
> horrified to see 1000 little dogs growling
> back at him. As he left, he
> thought to himself, "That is a horrible
> place, and I will never go back
> there again."

> All the faces in the world are mirrors. What
