     Accepted.  Maybe it was also my fault in that I didn't try hard    
     enough to determine if "Rev. Bob" was your real title or not.
     Unfortunately, it seems to be used a lot.  Now that I know
     that it is an offensive nickname, I will never use it again.
     So maybe we should just call it even, Bob.
