Are you the moderator here? Is this a moderator message? Do we even have a
moderator since Ceppa seems to have disappeared?

WRT to 3rd grade discourse: I never proclaimed a desire to use third grade
discourse. You accused me of doing so. This seems to be your obsession, not

seems to be working, Crossman, as you have no problems understanding what I
ay.
