Acid, too, and great comic timing.  :)

Over-rational?  I wouldn't be surprised.  ;)

I don't mean to imply that anybody doesn't use their brain.  Kevin's brain 
is fine.

I'm talking about first impression, of course, that later on become primary 
characteristics of the different people on a list.  When you first sign on, 
everyone is a stranger, but right away you start to notice these little 
things.  Wit, emotion, spirituality, etc.

Intelligence is a given, since everyone here has found their way to The Who.

No attention to detail, you recall.   Sorry, Jo.

I the spirit of Jo's soul-cleansing, let me apoligize if I've stepped on 
anyone's toes in the recent discussions.  There's always a tendency to get 
involved in the arguments and to forget that there are real feelings about 
Pete underneath the words.
