Oh, Darren,
        Please, please don't hate me.
        I cannot express with mere words my appreciation for your sharing
with me and correcting me in my wayward behavior and thinking. Could
you possibly please continue with your lessons in ethics? Please.
        However, others on this list may become bored by our deeply
meaningful communications, so, please email me off list. There is so very
much I need to learn from you.
        Perhaps we could start by donating our private meteorite collections
to museums - I am sure we could find some happy to have them.
        So looking foreword to talking to you more - but OFF LIST, please.
        Thanks again, Michael
