Hi,
As cited at the end of "LibraProje"'s posted message... When
[log in to unmask] said:
"Able Bodied People Say The Darndest Things"...
... he didn't say he was its author, but was quoting the saying's
author, me.
Not to sound paranoid, but this is the 3rd time (in only 5 weeks of
being on this Dis-Res List)... that I contribute something, that nobody
else has said, to the list.... and then someone "picks it up, and runs
with it", attributing my little contribution to somebody else.
Not to parody the old Monty Python skit ("My book, of which I am the
author. And it's mine..."), but.... I'm wondering if I have bad breath,
or something? Or... could this 3-times-in-5 weeks lost-attribution
problem be related to.... my lack of that little status-item, the
"dot-edu" at the end of my E-Mail address?

Postscript to my suggestion of "Able-Bodied People Say The Darndest
Things!" as a slogan:
The TV reference isn't so ancient, after all.
I just noticed in today's TV listings, that the old TV show whose name I
was mimicking, "Kids Say The Darndest Things", is actually now BACK in
production, showing, at least on one of the U.S. TV networks, on Friday
nights. (Yet another "Argument Against Television"!)
