That's a wonderful line, Stan! My hat's off to you for your command
of the language.

People who've been on the list for a while, including Dan himself, know
that I don't do flame wars or ad hominems or insults. They understand
that I'm not interpreting your illustration of a word's double meaning
as a insult against Dan, with whom I enjoy talking. But you **do**
deserve a compliment for excellence in in making a point via skilled use
of English, pithy and precisely on topic.

Or as they would say in Callahan's:

<><><><><><><> <a ton of peanuts!>

Cheers,
Bill
