Well-put, PoohBear.

Kirsten (a name I am partial to, as my oldest daughter is a "Kirsten!) your articles do look interesting, though a link with the first couple of paragraphs posted would be good. Also, it's nice to get to know folks a bit, introduce yourself, etc....get the lay of the land before coming in with so much and no intro. Thanks all the same and welcome to the Mudcat.
