Hello Paul,

 WD>>> Etc ... you realise, I hope, that nobody reads these
 WD>>> postings of yours ... ??

 PQ>>> There's a word for what you just did but it escapes me at this
 PQ>>> point in time.  If in doubt just press [Next] in future.

 LL>> Did I miss something?

 PQ> Now you're a learned fellow.  What's the word for a personage quoting from
 PQ> text which they have deemed that nobody reads?

Heretic.

 PQ> See?

We are all heretics.

 PQ> That's why I was/am stumped for the -word-.

There is The Word.
And it is not something that can be found in any book.
No matter how many people claim otherwise.

 PQ> I have an itch to know.

So did Adam.
So did Eve.
So did every man, and woman, who has ever existed.

 PQ> Can you help, please?

Was the serpent a heretic for having done as s/he was told?

--Lee
