Apologies for the late response; I just got home from a Christmas party. Thanks so much for the votes, rossim, rosalind, les, and of course bigbad. The mall performance is SO cool. I was listening to The Messiah a couple of days ago and thinking, as usual, how it makes one proud to be human. I do not get Rock Paper Scissors at all; I suppose it should be part of one's mental luggage but I doubt it would make anyone proud to be human. :) Merry Christmas to all you bright and witty folks, and thanks for all the challenges and fun over the past year. And congratulations to the ever clever ixion.
