No apology necessary on my account. If, on the other hand, you have had
a personal revelation of some kind, I'm happy if I was an unwitting
instrument. Unwitting instrument, that's me ;  ) .

You were quite right to state that a title that tends to diminish the
importance of the person in charge of the cooking end of the feast is a
bad idea. I just wanted to make it clear that you are in charge of the
amount of respect you receive, not your Kingdom's Chronicler, as I'm
sure you understand, being one of the most free spirits I have
encountered.

Don't forget I'm getting the Digest, and had not seen your post on that
topic when I responded, so wasn't referring to what you had written.
