They shouldn't have anything to do with the rest of your post, they are automatic and random. There use is to temporarily distract you from the essence at hand. Where they go wrong is when they don't... compleatly: they fool you into thinking they are a second opinion for the matter at hand. What does Benjamin Franklin think about the Contax G system? Nostradamus he aint! Or wasn't. He might have been a dabbled knowing him. So I'm of course thinking that "essential liberties" are somehow a metaphor for autofocus! "Safety" might represent a die cast body of the M6. This always happens to me. Its the way my mind works. Like when they put a little picture of a little movie star in the top corner of the newspaper and the big headline isn't supposed to have anything to do with him/her. It always does for me. If Hitler invades Poland I don't want to see a picture of Brad Pitt in the top corner of the paper. I want to see Adolf! Brad Pitt can't drive a tank! Mark :-) Rabiner
