Again, I apologize to you, Tanstaafl, and anyone else who found my over-broad assertion off-putting or inappropriate. So, oops, yeah, I misspoke. And my first apology was completely sincere. I'm making a conscious effort to not make broad assertions and generalizations without providing at least _some_ evidence in support of what I say. If anyone else wishes to personally take me to task over this, PLEASE do so in personal email. I'll be happy, as always, to field technical critiques on list of _any_ assertions I make, broad or narrow, as I'm sure well everyone else on this list. Subject closed!
