No, you haven't offended me, Bertvan. I just saw you trashing your own
views and thought I would draw it to your attention. I don't have a belief
in any of the list of agents you mentioned. I'm just trying to follow the
evidence. Of course, so is everyone else! We all end up in so many
different places, we must be really bad at this. :)
