C'mon, Rick!  Lighten up!  Do you run everything you post to the net through
spelling checkers, grammer analyzers, etc., or are you merely blessed with
perfect mastery of the English language?

I don't think it is fair that Jerry is singled out for a lot of criticism
simply because one might recognize his name.  (Or, perhaps be envious of
his fame?)  And I really don't think it is fair that we waste all the 
net.micro.cpm'ers time with this subject!  All future criticism of Pournelle
to net.flame, agreed!
