Sigh! I've fallen victim to a Bonnerism(*).

Ake, maybe you're new to the list and unfamiliar with my (and other's)
subtle humor. I'm sorry if this comment offends anyone. I in fact sent a
private apology to Peter. I've been subscribe to the piclist for over two
years and have developed sufficient callouses from repeatedly pressing the
delete key. I've been both a victim and participant of 'loquaciousness',
and am neither offended nor mind being offensive.

(*) Bonnerism - the act of making what appears to be a funny or innocent
comment only to find that you and three other people found humerous and
everyone else in the world was offended. Attributed to Matt Bonner.

PS. Anyone care to describe a Venusian bird to Mr. Hedman?
