    How old are you?

    Seriously, knowing your age would offer some insight into how you post here.

    I've got one too. When you say you're a "Historian", is that actually your vocation, or is it more of a state of mind?

    Let the record reflect that Federal Farmer admits it, he's no kind of historian.

    No, I just said that I'm not a professor. You don't needto be a professor to be a historian.

    Not really.
    And you said, at TBBS, you where in your early 20's IIRC, so claiming you are 35 now is a bit of a fib...

    A student of mine with a good understanding of the matter and bad orthography once wrote in a test that Shakespeare's plays could be divided into three kinds: The tragedies, the comedies, and the hysterical plays.
