Dude. I wasn't being sarcastic. I meant it. Thank you.

I used to say "scientists" in the above schtick, back in the day, and
got a laugh, but "appropriate use" of academic resources went out
with state subsidies of Internic, and scientists aren't as thick on
the ground as they were then. :-). It seems that in an attempt not to
call you a scientist, I called you something worse. :-).


Anyway, I make mistakes. I forget, or ignore, my spell-checker. More
to the point, I forgot most of my latin, and don't remember half of
my economics. And, in general, autodydacticism, and 60's/70's
state-school education, is a bitch. :-).

Thanks for fixing the error. It's kind of like when somebody reminded
me, when I was thirty-something that it's "remuneration", not
"renumeration". :-).

Its and it's still give me fits. See below for details...

Cheers,
RAH

It's is not, it isn't ain't, and it's it's, not its, if you mean it
is. If you don't, it's its. Then too, it's hers. It isn't her's. It
isn't our's either. It's ours, and likewise yours and theirs.
