Oh - that was humor?!? Frankly, I only skimmed it. I thought that
was your Mark Thorson imitation.

I guess nobody thought it was funny back then, nor now. I just
thought you were being stuffy again quoting some uncited anatomy
article by Dr Livingston, I presume.

But anyway - your boring response came well-after Moosie's posts
back in 1996 or 1997 or so. So you're saying it took you 3 years to
come up with that response? Or that it just took you 11 years to
fine tune it?
