It is the faculty of laamatyaave (singular) that tells us how beautiful "cellar door" is. -- John Cowan jcowan@reutershealth.com www.reutershealth.com www.ccil.org/~cowan Promises become binding when there is a meeting of the minds and consideration is exchanged. So it was at King's Bench in common law England; so it was under the common law in the American colonies; so it was through more than two centuries of jurisprudence in this country; and so it is today. --_Specht v.
