Sorry, I'm out.

I simply lack the necessary strength and mental energy to persuade the
issue any further. Donald Stufft just forwarded a quote that resonates
with my current state of mind (replace 'lists' with 'current topic'):

    "I feel I no longer possess either the necessary strength or perhaps
the necessary faith to continue rolling the stone of Sisyphus against
the forces of reaction which are triumphing everywhere. I am therefore
retiring from the lists, and ask if my dear contemporaries only one
thing — oblivion."
