I didn't realize footnoting was necessary. It is true, I didn't read each and every post (all three pages of them) before I dropped in my--perhaps misplaced and unwitty--witticism. And, in all honesty, I don't have the time. In very long discussions, I skim, and if there is a point of interest that I note, I respond to it. Considering the length of some posts, and the sheer volume of said posts, I think that is reasonable. Please feel free to take me to task for it.And to all others, I humbly and unreservedly apologize to Zander for infringing on his intellectual property without correctly crediting said ideas. If I caused anyone mental anguish by my insensitivity, I ask their forgiveness. I sincerely hope it will not happen in the future, but, being human, it probably will. Self-flagellation will commence immediately.</blockquote>
