Apologies for the egregious anacoluthon in the message sent earlier this
morning. EGW MEN OUN OUK EIMI PAULOS, GRAFEIN DE DUNAMAI hOMWS KAQAPER hO
PAULOS ... at least when writing without an amanuensis (I don't think I've
ever used an amanuensis). I'm not going to re-write the paragraph, but I
think you can see the glaring anacoluthon and understand well enough what I
meant to say.
