Don,

 I, for one, have learned a great deal from Dr. Power's long posts and I much
appreciate his taking the time to put together such clear and cogently stated
posts on what are extremely complex points of discussion. That may be because I
am not at the advanced level of understanding Greek that you and others on this
list are, but I did want you to know that his posts are not too long for some of
us to read, reread, and even save for future reference. The delete key is always
an option.
 Your dispute with him seems, to this outsider at least, almost personal, and
not really all that helpful to the whole list. I may well be wrong and will
gladly defer to your judgment, but I wonder if it might not be better carried on
off list. Either way I'll not get too excited. I can use the delete key too.

Thanks!
