No, it didn't. Barry seems not to have read what I wrote: "One knows what he means..." Of course, Barry won't read my response to Curtis either, so he'll continue to insist I needed to have it "explained" to me that it's very tough on a woman to have to bear an unwanted child. Barry's thinking machinery--as well as his ethical machinery--has deteriorated so rapidly it's hard to keep on top of it.
