That escaped me too. Seems there is an unwritten rule to never put the thematic crux of your article in the subject line (which contradicts the written rule of always using a precise, meaningful subject line). Or maybe the tacit rule is to always recapitulate the subject line in the body of the post. Or maybe I'm confabulating and there is no tacit rule at all (or maybe it's written down somewhere--I'm not going to look anyway). -- "The world is full of shipping clerks who have read the Harvard Classics." — Charles Bukowski
