        Jeremy:
        The reference was completely unintentional.  I mean that I was
replying to the sentence "stop making sense" in the original posting.  I
thought I'd put a quote on top of a quote and be *truly* postmodern.  Next
thing I know, there's a actual reference within the field.
        Now, how's that for a piece of Postmodernism?
        Besides, my friend Chris White is *truly* impressed. :-)
