da net! Eugene. :-)

Of course there are several degrees of freshness. This is a trout fisherman
writing.
And a resident of the coastline of California. Caught and cooked on the
spot/ caught and
frozen and taken home safely through the desert/bought at my local fish
store on thursday,
bought at my local fish store on monday..........

But I love your example and the novel is one of my very favorites.

And, as you know, there are only two kinds of people in the world --- those
who believe there are only
two kinds of people and those who think there are more.

conditionally speaking
mike

PS-- Reading about discursive psychology in the interims and wondering why

used as it is and where the word culture is, and what Lois thinks of it, and
mostly wishing I had more
