Really good point you've made there..I guess I'll have to say what I almost always do on these sorts of topics, I think-personally- that if you deep down think/feel you'd be able to, and have a serious enough desire to, it counts for something.
Lol, your WoW analogy made me giggle, mainly because I've known people who would try and argue with you on that one..some people just have no grasp on reality.
