Dear Carl,
By half-decent I meant no more than "any reasonable commentary", because
there would inevitably be some strife over which commentary were the best.
We all have our favourites, and I wouldn't want to exclude anyone's favourite
from consideration. Hence "half-decent", meaning your favourite plus
everyone else's favourite.
I love your three red peppers MoodWatch feature! Still chuckling....
