Dear EdA: Cannot accept 'underlying assumption.' Sometimes a little offensiveness can be stimulating - until it becomes inordinate, or inappropriate. Sarcasm isn't always out of bounds - and one of the elements of sarcasm seems to be a whit of offensiveness. Try Pain. It is bearable, until it becomes unbearable, yes? I have never bent over backwards to justify 'authored' or 'authoritarian' statements or expressions. The pulpit belongs to us all. And I refuse to eternally consider myself as seated in a pew. Geo. PS: Even ignoring the sidebars, above, I simply find your statement about underlying assumptions completely unsupportable. Fondly, and with hearty wishes that you experience the smoochiest of Valentine's Days, G.
