    Huh.  I think being could be something you do, but even if you're not
doing it, you still are; seems like it could go either way.  I could do
nothing and still be.  In fact, I'd have to do something pretty forceful in
order not to be.  This, however, is branching on the philosophic: Is being
passive or active or neither or both?  I'd go for the last one.
