Default A reluctance to take the controls

Jay, you sound like one of these guys "who just can't understand how
somebody could be DIFFERENT than you are". I mean, just HOW could that
be???


No, that's not it. I understand that humans are all uniquely wired,
and that different folks are interested in different things.

However, I simply can't understand any sentient being passing up the
opportunity to do something unusual, educational, affordable,
challenging, and fun, in a safe, friendly environment.

This young lady was offered the chance to do something that very few
people will *ever* get to do, doing something that many would give
anything to experience. Her refusal to take the yoke was an unusual
display of timid behavior coming from someone who is normally far from
timid -- which is why I remain puzzled and post my experience here.

Your saying, by way of explanation, that "Everyone is different" only
states the obvious, but doesn't really address the situation or explain
the experience.
