>>Thanks, David for posting the whole article. After reading it,
I have a few more things to say, but I want to make sure it's
not just me.

Folks, please read this article and tell us what you think.
The article is pretty short and there are some Greek issues
worth discussing here, I think. <<

I did read it, and I really don't have time to work through all the details, 
but his comment on δε, DE -- is it really only used so strictly as his 
footnote from BDF suggests?  I am not so sure, particularly when it is being 
used to introduce a contrast.
