Not anything to do with his writing, I just made the dumb assumption that Nicola was a woman's name. 8^P <snip> > Now in all fairness, I am mostly big mouth who will talk > in stream of consciousness..... sometimes I just wish I > had the beauty of Steve's one liners... he conveys things > like Trinary (only in one line :-) I am often accused of passion > without the ability to get it through clearly in a short time.... > truth be told several people who lurk help make my posts > better (or my thoughts clearer). Brevity can be a virtue. Both the aforementioned ex listmembers, Stephan and Nicola, were very deft at the eloquent one line post as well.
