Regarding paragraphs and pithiness, here's a pithy response to the 'paragraph' conundrum, not including the deliberately verbose intro:



It's vague.

Thanks. I understand everything now. Well, vaguely, at any rate.

Since, indeed, it is a crucial thing to know whether if you cut one head off of a two headed man, you have in fact decapitated him.

Exactly. I'm definitely going to stop doing that now.

Mind you, if we take that example and define decapitation as 'topping' someone, then off with one head and the guy will be dead. Like Elgarian, I will have to take more care about the things I get up to.

I saw you behind me Dave in my bathroom mirror. How did you do that? Can we have an agreement that the bathroom is out of bounds. I like my privacy in there.

Well then, don't say my name into the mirror three times.  0:)

All is well again in the ChamberNut household.  For half an hour, I had a frantic search for 3 discs out of the 10 Quartetto Italiano complete Beethoven string quartets.  The 3 missing discs were also all of the late quartets except for op. 132  0:)

Doing some major clean up of clutter off the computer desk, I had the entire CD set in my hands, as it slipped out of my hands all of the CD sleeves went flying into the pile of clutter!  I must have searched the entire pile about 10 times, it seemed!

Anyways......they are now safely back in their case.  0:)
