You know, it does occur to me that we did not see Apollonia's letter to the
editor. Perhaps it was not as, er, well-presented as it could have been?
Mind you, I know damn well that some people would have responded that way
if the King of Academics wrote them (Heh- there's a challenge for Norman
Hinton! ;-), but it could be that it would be useful to vett a letter of
that nature past the list.

I will admit that I am sorely tempted to add my two cents now- while I
don't have a doctorate, I do have a degree, and I could put up sources...
though I don't think that is what this person is interested in.

Hildegarde of Bingen would be horrified.
