I started this after a blog thread with you and Roberta Q, I believe, so yay for Facebook and blogs.

Also, it was very interesting to write this, although I was aiming for this length the original is more than 3x this long, has a lot more in it, and needs to get expanded so as to really be something. It was fascinating to see what the editors got me to do to this to turn it into something for a general audience, what they wanted kept and not.
