dmb,
I felt the need to tighten up my definition with "object of analysis" which I like better. Your pronouncements concerning the MoQ I do not take as anything other than your opinion. My interpretation doesn't work for you. That's fine. That you want to label my point-of-view anti-intellectual just makes me laugh. But thanks, I do think the phrase 'object of analysis' is more effective, and I owe that change all to you. Marsha On Sep 6, 2010, at 11:47 AM, david buchanan wrote: > > Why would you thank me?
