yes indeed bravo
so our combined testimony provides the best available truth so far
on mikes exact question

& truth usually means less than erudition

for it means more than precision


here at multipunctilious bp
erudition is simply boring if not for the sake of precision

yet still
& especially if we are after truth
why deny anything
even if requested to do so
when affirmation is available
even if necessarily periphrastic
to accommodate the quest

here in harrogate again it is an impossibly beautiful day so i will
run out to play asap but i have to tell you
you would love this place

theres an interstate tunnel with plenty of pretty college girls on
both ends
somethingboro ky being the other end
name escapes me at the moment
& i have been thru half a dozen times since last night

but yikes i still have a dozen more messages to read
