Just a couple of days ago, I rejoined the list after an absence of about
three years. My question is this: What do you mean when you refer to this
distinction as "old-fashioned" but as coming into play in this instance. I
think of this distinction as fundamental. Is my understanding a bit too
simplistic? Are you indicating that in other instances the distinction is
not so clear, or am I reading too much into your comment?
cordially,
