Virtual Kisses! That rocks so completely I am almost in love with you . . . . . . almost because: 1. I believe in marital vows, and, unfashionably, love my wife after 28 years of marriage. 2. Am 98% heterosexual (anyone who says they are 100% is being disingenuous). Richmond.

Re: Rename object
Hmphf . . . . . . feeling fairly 'pseudo' myself, and stumping off to work my way through something a bit more worthwhile, like, "Le Recherche Sur Les Verites" by Nicholas Malebranche (OK, OK, I admit it, I'm reading the Lennon and Olscamp English translation), which, frankly, rocks.

Re: Rename object
"it" is, quite frankly, both a bore and something that makes 9-11 year olds wish that Paiget were not dead, but were on hand to explain things (and as the average 9-11 year old is not up-to-speed in Swiss French . . . ), or, at a push, Seymour Papert.

Almost completely 'done'. 8-)
Where would I be without your help throughout the years (well, about 18
at my last count)?
No! Don't answer that one; it's rhetorical.
