Hans, do you consider your .... referring to Jim's anology as flaccid .....
as something other than emotional responses?

I call it descriptive (certainly it's not emotional!!).

According to my Funk and Wagnalls (gotta love a guy with a funky name
like that!):

==== flaccid: adj. soft and limp: (example: flaccid biceps)

In other words, without strength, weak, ie., "flaccid analogy"

If that strikes an emotional chord with you, then you must truly be a
"sensitive" guy!

With all kind wishes,
