This is a remarkably informative, cogent, and clearly discussed question and responses. It’s superb from the well crafted question through the refining answers. The SDMB is my vote for best website ever, and I’ve been a Cecil fan for many, many years - from when it first appeared in the Reader. This one is a terrific set of posts. Just sayin’
