lose it.Ooops. I'm afraid I fell off the wagon, Jim.
Good to see attribution falacies remain strong too.. and I should know, I'm expert.
As I actually said elsewhere about irony, humor quite has its place. Just defining humor with consensus remains ever elusive. ..and I intend no implications about how I define it.
So BM, er BG, er Eminence Grise, shall we start generating data regarding the anonymous/ambiguous-identity pattern-matching experiment you seem to have been leading? I'm willing to pitch in a bit.. There must be something salvagable from all this ON-list disruption, no? (If not, I prefer this be my last contribution to it. 
Enjoy the hills,
