You speak of Karl in the third person, like he was some vegetable - "he didn't taste so good before, but now I put some salt on him and he's much better..." You snipped the most important point I make, in my view, which is the appalling lack of charity exhibited here -- witness Mr. Day's remarks about "slapping him around" in his last huffy post. Do you feel all warm and fuzzy with that metaphor? -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA
