Three times in one day is too much.  Would everybody please be careful
when they hit F and edit the quotes.  I mean, hell, Earl, I was already
misquoted as saying something _you_ said, and now you are misquoting
me.  If you want to reply to the original posting, please find the
original message and reply to that, and not edit the replies to the
original.

I apologize if I am a little testy, but hey, I accept responsibility
for what I say, but not what I don't, and certainly not for what I have
publicly disagreed with.

Cheers, all, and careful with editing those follow-ups.
