Doc M is having a "senior day" today *creeak! poot!* so she
can't reach around back with her arthritic little right arm
to smack quarrelsome and snitful children in the back seat!
Believe it or not, it is possible to post wide ranges of
opinion here in Mohicanland, or to even *gasp!* be critical
of something here, and you will not be flamed. However,
it's a bunch of strong-minded, well-read, intelligent
people we have here -- even the gnomal ones -- and you
must be prepared to defend your point of view if it's
a controversial one. Tact and courtesy tend to work
wonders, and a little humor never hurt anything. Amazingly
enough, people flying off the handle and then coming back
the next day to apologize to everyone happens routinely
here. It all goes back to the "life too &*!!@#-ing short
this crap" idea...first written on the side of a Tibetan
yak by the Dalai Lama, I believe. Well, I've done run squat
out of pomposity for the moment, so if y'all will pardon me
I'm going to fall face forward into a cup of coffee.
Her Royal Crabbiness, Doc M
