Well, since you *didn't* believe what [you] wrote, I feel it would have been naive of me not to have "dismiss[ed] it out of hand." But I have not, Curtis. I wrote four posts to you yesterday. Those four posts, each one of them, constitutes a comprehensive response to what you wrote to me this morning, which I just responded to now. We are talking about a Curtis Principle. But I think I might not forget *this*: "I guess you must have ascertained that I really didn't believe what I wrote so you could dismiss it out of hand". Orgasm. You came, Curtis.
