Bill,
 
My many thanks for your gracious and obviously sincere apology.  Forgotten.
And I tend to agree with you -- descenting is cosmetic, unless the number of
bombs per day creates a real problem and then it becomes curative.  :)
 
I thought about adding this after my last message, and since I'm on the
subject, I think I will just add that in the message discussing ear cropping,
I didn't mean to make it sound quite so personal -- I meant to be speaking
not only on behalf of myself but on behalf of anyone who agrees with me so,
it really should have said more like, `kindly give me and anyone else who
doesn't feel so vehemently against descenting the same courteousy'.  A small
point, but an important one to me -- if I meant it to be totally personal I
would have sent a private message.  Anyway I doubt I'll be commenting
anymore.  I've made my point pretty clear.  Descenting is a last resort but
not a sin, in my opinion.  `Nuff said.
