Hi, Dallas Hinton!

 DH> Which part don't you understand, Alexander?

The part after "or." ;-)

red eyes weren't a symptom of rabies,  //OK
or, for that matter,                   //Well ;)
anything seen outside of the kind of film that neither of the
Tylers would be caught dead at but knew all they needed to know
about, thank you very much.

PS: I wonder, if this writer would read his book on the radio, for the first
time -- how many people in the US would understand this sentence?

Bye, Dallas!
