[FRIAM] Mea Maxima culpa

[Steve Smith]

Nick -

Independent of the topic you are trying to support and the distortion of 
speech-to-txt transliteration, it is good to hear your "voice" here on 
the list.    I myself am about to hit the road for a long trip and with 
any luck will be entirely unmotivated to stick my anecdotes into 
everyone else's serious discussions here for that duration.  I am 
sometimes surprised at how much I depend on the background warp and weft 
of public commentary and self-inspection that flows here.  Your voice is 
an important feature in that texture.
