Tom,  As you have often pointed out, we do disagree but we are friends.  In
aqny case, I enjoy the banter.  At a minimum, it teaches me reserve.
Unfortunately, the issues go beyond technical and even philosophy.  The
problem is when you put 500 people to writing standards, most of whom are
technical, the result demands compromise and that results in complexity.
The other choice is each will have its own standard.  Not bad as long as it
is my standard.

I knew that one wouldn't get past.... still, I could not in all conscience
accept payment for so much unused advice over the years ;-)
