I have been avoiding responding to comments that suggest we are, in some way, immoral in our career choices. Such comments are so out of place in a guild like forum that they are beyond reply. In a Panglossian best of all possible worlds, I suppose we might entertain such discussion, in the finite atmosphere of 21st century reality, it is gibberish.
I hope that Mary will stick with us and not be distracted by the yapping of every dogma in the manger. For those who wish to discuss professionalism without distraction, I am open to direct contact, even though I haven't figured out how to get back my regular Mudcat identity. (I've tried and tried but I've failed and failed. The next time Dick Greehaus drives down to Philly, I'll enlist his aid).
Anyway, my e-mail address is   musicmic@peoplepc.com and I'm not getting chased out of this thread by anyone.
