I felt that, among other things, (f)orget it was ambiguous and generally kind of yucky, and suggested the current (c)lear instead. Thomas agreed, but insisted that (f) should continue to work since it was, as I believe he put it, "hard-wired into my brain." I agree (as I did then) that it should be removed, FWIW, for the same reason Vincent suggests. -- Derek D.
