Forgive me, guys and gals, I've been pretty quiet for some time but I just
can't help it:

..........and Sam, why do you not sell your vanity automobile and your
vanity home and your vanity Leica equipment, all of which make you feel good
(because there is no justification for feeling good, whether the feel-good
is per a vanity auto or vanity upscale home or vanity Leica gear or a
beloved "vanity pet" - a phrase I've never heard before) and send those tens
or hundreds of thousands of dollars to feed those bloated, fly-covered,
starving African - and Asian - and Latin American - children. Better yet,
get you to Somalia and bring several of those children home with you to care
for.

Cretin!

That's francais for get him out of here.

Out.

Seth
