Yes, my mistake and my apologies to Mr. Hayhoe. I put the wrong name in my post - possibly the result of trying to type while laughing about the references to wild flounces. I learned some about them today. Up until now I was familiar only with the domestic variety - they're smaller and not quite as lurid.

That rant wasn't from George...just someone who has invoked his name
and put him on the subject line. I'm sure he has George's eternal
gratitude, since that'd how long his rant will keep showing up in a
search everytime someone searches on George's name.

It must be a terrible thing to be a brilliant super genius who has to suffer the discussions of mere mortals who want to use this board to discuss such mundane things as how to do your job and stay alive in hard economic times, instead of being able to engage in sublime discourse about the really important things like grammar.</snark>
