Crazy cat (and dog) people finally explained, to me at least.
Animal lovers that love specific types of animals but not people or other types of animals.
Hmmmmm.....let's see:
transference
[trans-fer´ens]in psychiatry, the unconscious tendency of a patient to assign to others in the present environment
feelings and attitudes associated with significant persons in one's earlier life.
I feel a book coming on.
All characters appearing in this work are fictitious. Any resemblance to real persons, living or dead, is purely coincidental.

The above chart shows how consistent this pattern is from 1985 – 2008. The blue line plots monthly deaths as measured by the y-axis, starting with about 200,000 in January 1985. They show an unbroken pattern of deaths peaking in the winter and bottoming in the summer. The green and red lines are simple and weighted averages that smooth out the lines to show the change in annual deaths over time.

Where is the centre of the universe?
There is no centre of the universe! According to the standard theories of cosmology, the universe started with a "Big Bang" about 14 thousand million years ago and has been expanding ever since. Yet there is no centre to the expansion; it is the same everywhere. The Big Bang should not be visualised as an ordinary explosion. The universe is not expanding out from a centre into space; rather, the whole universe is expanding and it is doing so equally at all places, as far as we can tell.
In 1929 Edwin Hubble announced that he had measured the speed of galaxies at different distances from us, and had discovered that the farther they were, the faster they were receding. This might suggest that we are at the centre of the expanding universe, but in fact if the universe is expanding uniformly according to Hubble's law, then it will appear to do so from any vantage point.
If we see a galaxy B receding from us at 10,000 km/s, an alien in galaxy B will see our galaxy A receding from it at 10,000 km/s in the opposite direction. Another galaxy C twice as far away in the same direction as B will be seen by us as receding at 20,000 km/s. The alien will see it receding at 10,000 km/s:
So from the point of view of the alien at B, everything is expanding away from it, whichever direction it looks in,
just the same as it does for us.
In a conventional explosion, material expands out from a central point. A short moment after the explosion starts, the centre will be the hottest point. Later there will be a spherical shell of material expanding away from the centre until gravity brings it back down to Earth. The Big Bang—as far as we understand it—was not an explosion like that at all. It was an explosion of space, not an explosion in space.Last edited by rock lobster; Thu, Jan 28th, 2016 at 10:52 PM.

Question: How Can Galaxies Move Away Faster Than Speed of Light?
Answer: Einstein’s Theory of Relativity says that the speed of light – 300,000 km/s – is the maximum speed that anything can travel in the Universe. It requires more and more energy to approach the speed of light. You could use up all the energy in the Universe and still not be traveling at light speed.
As you know, most of the galaxies in the Universe are expanding away from us because of the Big Bang, and the subsequent effects of dark energy, which is providing an additional accelerating force on the expansion of the Universe.
Galaxies, like our own Milky Way are carried along by the expansion of the Universe, and will move apart from every other galaxy, unless they’re close enough to hold together with gravity.
As you look at galaxies further and further away, they appear to be moving faster and faster away from us. And it is possible that they could eventually appear to be moving away from us faster than light. At that point, light leaving the distant galaxy would never reach us.
When that happens, the distant galaxy would just fade away as the last of the photons reached Earth, and then we would never know it was ever there.
This sounds like it breaks Einstein’s theories, but it doesn’t. The galaxies themselves aren’t actually moving very quickly through space, it’s the space itself which is expanding away, and the galaxy is being carried along with it. As long as the galaxy doesn’t try to move quickly through space, no physical laws are broken.
