I can not reconstruct what the point was-do you recall? I'm not sure if this was ever published as a criticism, or if it just came up via email--again, anything you can do to jog my memory would be helpful. I think I asked you about this once before which only goes to show that my memory is getting ever weaker... Thanks--I hope all is going well. Cheers Ray Raymond S.
