You read the missive, right? Allow me to summarize: "My copious

I thought the cool part was where he said, "Jeez, I *am* an inexplicable
jerk way too often. I'm going to change my behavior so I don't have to
apologize to people so often."
Oh, right, he didn't say that.

But the topic of this sub-thread here is OCLA hyperlinks. What do you think
