Hi! My DSL at home has had itself a little neurotic breakdown, and my live-in computer expert is off in the states and won't be back till later this week. And I don't log in from work (well, now, obviously...but not regularly ). I'm not ignoring you (or the links, or any of it)....but I'm not gonna get to it immediately. Many appologies, I do appreciate you doing the footwork.

And Bel, Hon, I know Chomsky's a linguist...that's the only thing that made it funny. Guess I failed .

Lil, I can't imagine a room or discussion you wouldn't be welcomed in on any terms you cared to participate. If such a place exists, I'm not sure I'd want to be there . Hijack at your will, I for one am happy to play around you as well as through.

G
