*laugh* I wasn't trying to correspond w/ Jefferson, just with Tom for
a couple emails (not that I object). He then quoted me in his
conversation with Jefferson.
I'm going to be bailing on trying to keep up with this thread (though
wanting to be CCed and still reading it), pending writing / sketching
up a fuller description that will hopefully answer most of the
questions raised both on and off list.

Including me. :-P

/me adds vote of agreement. I see no need to take any of the
discussion that's ontopic offlist - that seems to be a good way to
handle meta stuff (like ensuring that we are all on the same page in
terms of intent and non-insulting and such), but when *content* goes
offlist it just gets too hard to track the threads.
(Perhaps something that would be 2d-able? ;-P)
