Exactly, Spike. And the profound pleasure of speaking with others who 
especially value this satisfaction is much like love. As is all 
friendship, of course. Which is why PJ's joking jab doesn't really 
capture my angst at the (temporary) silence of the list. What I was 
jonesin' for was a fix of rapid fire eclectic polymathic blather with my buds.
