OMG!  I guess I should learn to read.

Glyph, sometimes I think you must be the most patient human ever. What a
friendly and gentle correcting paragraph that is. I'm sure you'd make a
great parent.  (And I'm still a child, besides.)  Still, I'd love to have
been a fly on the wall when you realized I had the args reversed :-) I'm a
big fan of expletives.

Thanks a lot. I'm sure that's going to save me many hours of frustration
and confusion.
