Please note *I* never said you did. I was referring to the amount of OT Seinfeld
traffic that this list has had. You have nothing to clear up unless you feel like
making a mess on your own.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. While I may disagree with The Great One
on some matters of style and substance, that does not mean I don't respect him or the
incredible work he's left us to argue over. Until such time as he writes a coda to
the series, the field is left open to those of us who wonder what a world after
"Crocodiles" would be like, and let our dreams and our keyboards take over. Someday,
you might find such a vision interesting.

Until then, Kevin remains
Howlin' mad still, 'cause them teeth still are a little sore from Nurse Ratchett's TLC
yesterday.
