Okay Kevin...Now you've got me really confused with all this flowery(but nicely put) prose of yours here.

I thought one was supposed to feed those oats to that darn horse...NOT "FEEL" 'em???!!!

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
