Nnnnooooo! seriously, don't you dare leave this List, Charlie.  your
contributions really are 'valuable.'  Interesting and very readable.  You
can be as cumudgeonly as you wish.   If you do leave, I will forward to you
all of Steve Barbone's posts.  And I will get Ernie Carson after you.

To which I would add that we'll cut off your supply of Bushmills and Guiness
if you even suggest this again!
