I am told that blogs have very short life spans. They quickly degenerate, and then die an ignoble death. I hope that doesn't happen here, but this post may be the first sign of the inevitable.
I have been reproved for my recent silence, so I gotta get something posted, even though it is after midnight and I am dead tired:
Your many "Comments" and e-mails in response to my last post are GREAT and very much appreciated. (Chris Kall researched and wrote an 8 page doctoral thesis.) I look forward to re-reading everything and writing a post summarizing what you all have taught me.

More later. Good night.
