Scottie--my request was not a jab at the late Lord--I'm fairly in love with
Don Juan myself. I meant only that seven straight hours of any one man's
writing should be interspersed with many and various voices from the land of
the living. Something old George Gordon himself might agree with, wouldn't
you think?

P.S. For us slower Fish, Scottie, could you explain what "ennui" has to do
with my post or your response? And yes I know what ennui means, and I didn't
have to look it up either, so stow those sarcastic witticisms, if you will.
