atw: And one just for Hedley

What a good idea Hedley. Lie down for a while ... and do get that repeat
filled.

It is curious that a man of words, as you are, can say that he "endured" a
thread when he had a choice not to read it. 

Given all your years in this profession, and in publishing before that, you
have a lot you could contribute to this list, Hedley. Instead, you prefer to
throw out your one-line barbs. Why don't you put aside your detestation of
me for a while, and give the list something more edifying.

Having endured the EoS, Punctuation, and Antonym debates, why does 
'dissemble' spring to mind?  Better lie down for a while ...
