Happy Birthday. 
   Thanks but no thanks to the Saturday discussion party invitation.
I feel that the debate has reached the point of diminishing returns. 
I may be foolish but I am not courageous; in fact I am scared stiff of 
a possible personal assault, judging the tone of some respondents who
unhappily include my own daughter.  
   Just a final comment to Danny. It completely escapes me how my poor
joke is "deeply mysogynic"; it does not deal with attitudes at all. It
deals with semantics, and as such it it depicts pretty accurately the 
prevailing usage and manners of the 30's. Of course it exaggerates, 
but that is what makes it a joke.
