Richard, in Airy R Bean you have met your match.

Ah! Punchinello,

How generous by over half - but by only playing to the audience ;-)

I'm sure they love the droll irony of that comparable praise costing
either the deflation of vanity by reality, or ego's insufferable
elevation against hidden desire.

Truly a classic work of trollery in challenge....

I shall stand aside for the struggles between these Tritonic minnows.

Richard, I can only admire your adeptness at judging my motives for the
intervention.


But you are not exactly correct. Let's await further developments - if
any!


( I really do think the English and USA written languages are coming close
together again. Welcome! All due to that modern invention - the
Internet.)

( I understand the BBC Over-seas Service is widely heard in the USA - again
over the Internet rather than the old-fashioned, beamed, short-wave radio
waves.)

We can even get BBC domestic news here on cable television.

I have not tried the BBC via the internet. But I do try to warch its
Evening News Program on PBS Television every night. It`s simply the best
coverage if not the most pictures. How much fire-footage do we really
need?
