Hey, leave me out of this. I'm me, so please don't be associating me
with anyone else, crackpot or otherwise. And to which of my posts on the
tailgunner topic are you referring, anyway? I thought we had agreed on
that one, finally, after a few of you insisted on turning the topic into
one of semantics instead of logic?

An aside to the OP, whoever he is, the trouble with a dry sense of humor
in written form is that it takes a great deal of skill to write dry
humor. It's much easier to speak it. And, if you throw in one of those
idiotic emoticons so that people won't mistake your comments for
hostility or sarcasm or ignorance or stupidity, then you're smiling at
yourself, which wets that dry humor right down. Quite a dilemma.

Correction: Not the OP of the subject line, just the OP of this fork,
Jason.
