I applaud your efforts, Rick and Jerry, to educate a fellow  listserver.  
Unfortunately, there are mushroom clouds overhead, children  whose souls are 
being savaged by state departments of education, school  districts, and those 
"bad, bad teachers", and most of all, an  imaginary victory to be declared over an 
unknown and faceless ennemy who  lurks, so your efforts will not only go 
unnoticed, but also unappreciated.   You are looking for a prince where frogs 
croak, and in the dark of his  night, would it not be better to let a dog just 
howl into that darkness ?   Especially, since this racetrack is heading nowhere, 
by all means, let the man  rail !!!  The majority of us are already hitting 
Delete, and we do want to  read what you both have to say.
