If you have a question, there's not much point prescribing the
nature of the answer in advance.  So, if you do have a question,
go ahead and ask it; maybe I'll provide an answer.

Harry, you criticise me frequently, but I don't see you offering
a replacement for me; maybe you're working on that?

Just to forestall some possibilities here, I will add that this
topic is now over, as far as I'm concerned -- unless somebody
has some real question that seems to merit an answer.
