Adam,
	A comment concerning the use of the term 'beeeelyuns'.
	A friend of mine recently invented a new word to cover
	this kind of statement: the SAGAN.  A SAGAN is an
	expression of arbitrarily large number of items in an
	amorphous collection (i.e. "The are sagans of fools in the
	world").  Note that the phrase "sagans and sagans" should
	not be used, since this is redundant.
