    I am not sure what point you are trying to make here. Likely any browser
    would categorize this thread under the general heading of "moon".  Perhaps a
    lot of disgruntled navigators/lunarians will cue into the *&^%$~@ descriptor
    because it resonates with them.

    In any case, I was hoping for one of your illuminating bits of wisdom, not a
    dressing down for my flippancy in choosing a thread name.

    Keep in mind that this is a discussion forum, not the halls of academia.

    Robert
