Oh no! No no!!!  I'm having a Susquehanna Hats moment!  Don't you
remember all the fighting and fury that happened here on the 78-L over
Alois Haba???  I recall that it resulted in the first time someone was
banned from the list.  

Interesting topic, but it turned nasty for some reason.  But both of

still with us.
