And you might recall a post from Jay Maynard saying similar, back around
last Oct/Nov.  (I didn't know, until I skimmed ESR's latest "Book" that Jay
is a bone-a-fyd CELEBRITY, as he helped on one chapter of the "gospel"...;-)
Jay and I have exchanged some posts on this subject on 2 threads here on M-L
over the past year or two (and, Iirc, an e or two).

I think it's time that this thread be moved over to MIDRANGE-NONTECH (http://lists.midrange.com/listinfo/midrange-nontech).
