     Done deal. Around here they call me "the Spactor-Tractor"
     since I season my editing life with a touch of Beckett's
     "Pare it down, pare it down!"

     So SPAX it shall be, okay (maybe
     get radical, all the way to SPX).

     But, Lor', this gives me a chance to see Our Bob's
     ploy and raise him one, his name now forever to
     be spelt, obiter dictu,  BOB GRUM'BLIN'

     Oh, and Judy, you are SUCH a tease!

     tersely,

      pax,

	SPX
