It annoys me so much that another user replied back with the quotes from the "Wrath of Khan", which quoted Herman Meville in "Moby Dick". If you'd like I could send it to you so you'd have a nice script suitable for printing out so you could scare the family and dogs while Dad snarls invectives at it and turns the air around you blue. That's what I do with that Damned Whale. Makes me feel a helluva lot better for it, too. It gives me the chance to be quite the artiste, posing and gesturing while trying out different cadences and tones during the rendition of it. God, that would make one helluva video for YOUTUBE. I'll wait until my performance is perfected. With Evolution, I'll get plenty of chances.
