I hear ya, Bro. Believe me I don't take my notions as God's fact. On the
other hand, the input I get has to relate to my own aural experience in
order to be meaningful to me. My "arguments" are intended (I hope) as a
quest for clarification.

You are absolutely right on the money about the generous people on this
list. The time folks have taken (on and off List) to get me straightened out
on the jargon and the math is simply incredible. I'm very grateful. And,
like Joe, my life will never be the same. :-)

Thanks and be well,

Jerry
