I'm sorry I have been so rude to wait until now before expressing thanks for this unbelievably comprehensive analysis and all it's informative pointers as well. My only excuse is that I've been too busy to do so, because I was too busy doing what I learned from your fine presentation.

Hopefully I'll get the chance to post a reply tomorrow addressing in a point-by-point fashoin several of the key issues you discussed, and how they've made a difference in my approach and thinking.
