Indeed you can. Most of us on the digest recognize that and therefore try
not to talk down to other digesters.

I would never say, "Hey Dummy", to Dennis for two reasons. The least of
which is that it wouldn't be polite. The most of which is that it is very

dummy. He has been responsible for some great posts.
