Thanks, I guess. It was pretty much "stream of consciousness," written fast and off the top of my head, and then posted without even an edit pass. So it might be weak in many ways, and it could almost certainly be shorter. But as some writer famously said, "I'm sorry this is so long...I didn't have time to make it shorter." :-)
