Because I am so far behind on everything, I have been unable to study this issue to my satisfaction. I hope to return to it soon. In the meantime, I just wanted to say that I found the discussion interesting, and I advise everyone to move forward cautiously and thoughtfully. Not very helpful, I know, but so long as we do that, I'm sure the right answers will become apparent.
