Yep, nothing worse than loose doctrinal statements flying left & right.

After I completed my master's thesis on the Unintended Use of Metaphysics In Elizabethan and Jacobean Drama I just KNEW I should have taken that remedial course on basic English! Why wasn't this guy around to guide me back then?

I can see that cancelling a post 5 seconds after it appeared here instead of the intended newsgroup has done little to prevent further discussion. I've already posted a new thread (since I couldn't reply to a cancelled post) apologizing for the mistake; it wasn't intended for anyone in this NG.

Please let this thread die, folks

Due to rampant abuse by various trolls, most news servers ignore cancel requests. Thus, your cancel request probably didn't get honored by more than one or two news servers sitting in a couple of dusty basements in a couple of third world countries. Meaning, your goof has circled the world a few times and you're stuck with it. :-(
