          Anders,

          Your humble and sincere apology is most assuredly accepted. I know
          that you realize, in retrospect, that those who practice the

          most honorable profession of the law are indeed the elite among us
          and must always be held in the utmost highest regard. I believe it
          is appropriate for all of us luggers to take a moment from leicadom

          and reflect upon the following Q & A's about those distinguished
          practitioners among us.
