So have at it and don't worry about a thing. If you learn something or if we learn something, that's a good thing.

The front lines are safe. The only bullets fired are rhetorical.

Clara,

I second Cash's thoughts. Please don't think that I was pointing out the other thread as an implicit reprimand. I just wanted to make sure you had the benefit of what I thought were some pretty insightful posts.

elektratig,

I never took it as a reprimand, but as something pretty helpful, which as I said before, gave me a lot of food for thought. I simply didn't want the 'collegiates' in the group to have to keep holding the 'kindergardner's' hand to cross the street. But, as you all don't seem to mind, we'll keep at it.

Miss Clara,

To continue your analogy, we're "collegiates" because when we were "kindergarteners," some other "collegiates" held our hands to cross the street.
