Hey Jim,


JKH> Okay, so, lest anything I say prolong this....

     Heh heh heh heh.


JKH> Let me make it clear that I don't really care which way you go on this.

     *sniff* But I thought you really cared! I'm leaving! I'm going to
     go stay with my sister until you decide what you want from this
     relationship! Masher.


JKH>   It just seemed like a silly, "politically correct" waste of time to 
JKH> me.

     Yeah, you're right, but think about it.... that was half the fun.


JKH> This "debate" has raged for quite a few years in academic circles, 
JKH> with little impact on how language is actually used, outside of the 
JKH> "politically correct" institutions of higher learning.

     If they're PC, how can they be higher learning? Isn't that an oxy
     moron? (And please, no jokes about my size.)


JKH> Either way, have fun.

     Why, thankee. But methinks this little discourse has run it
     course now. A few giggles, a chance to bash the learned buffoons
     and ignorant-by-choice illiterates. We've had our fun. :)


JKH> And, I'd still be willing to help with conversions of file formats,
JKH> places to download (mirrors), or any other technical aspect of the
JKH> project, short of copy-editing, for obvious reasons.

     ROFL! A true renaissance man, if I ever saw one.
