Erwin, Your comment is similar to my feelings about writers. We can analyze grammar, length of sentenses, syntax, even philosophical structure of novels, but none of that tells me which writers speak to my sensibilities. And years ago I had an old, dearly loved Remington typewriter (remember those???) much like Hemingway and company, but it just never would write the Old Man and the Sea. Maybe it needed adjustments. "course, my Mac won't write such a book, either. Maybe the next PowerPC version though. . . . . . . . Donal Philby San Diego
