You’ve earned your bragging rights, Matt. Congratulations!

Why didn’t you post this over in “Comments on Cecil’s Columns”?

Congratulations, Matt, you join a VERY small group of distinguished whatchamacallits.

However, since this is properly a comment on one of Cecil’s columns and not on a Mailbag item, I am moving it (as Ursa suggests) to the forum RESPONSES TO CECIL’S COLUMNS.
