Thanks, Sam.  It's nice to see a gracious response!

For a while back I received a lot of guff because I wrote and then
posted Ruby code in a style that originated with a big gun at
Microsoft about two decades ago, e.g. sFirstName containing a
reference to a string.  Instead of addressing the substance of my
question,  they thought it important to hector me for code that lives
quietly and inconspicuously on my computer.  It reminded me of Salem,
Mass in the 1600s.

In light of that experience some months ago, your response is a
refreshing indeed.

Best wishes,
Richard
