Well, I'm not exactly sure why I took that approach.  I didn't want to 
appear unnecessarily provocative.  Such a consideration rarely concerns me 
on the ASLML! :-)

I think I may have overdone it a bit.  In light of my recent attempt to 
gather statistics on the ASLML, I didn't wish to appear to have a motive or 
hidden agenda.  Did I mention that I think I may have overdone it?

It's a deal.  Rest assured, on the ASLML I shall -- while trying to remain 
civil at all times -- not issue such apologies in advance.  Afterwards, 
perhaps...

And BTW... there has been only one taker on the Forums about my "Perry Sez" 
inquiry.  Perhaps they just find the subject boring.  Oh, well.
