Geez, what an awfully inconvenient spot.  Deirdre and I will shlep the 
several blocks from our house to there, but you're going to have to

make cups of tea, floss the cat, fluff the geraniums, open the kitchen window 
and scream out it with operatic force, volume, and decorum, and then return to 
the vexed glowing letters calmer of mind and soul?" -- The Cube, forum3000.org
