   Troy, just a friendly warning, you're biting off more than   
   you can chew.   
      
   As for Podkayne's recent behavior, she's been amazingly   
   respectful and restrained, at least in comparison to some of   
   her past (e.g. 1999-2001) comments, especially re. Crusade.   
      
   If she is Ford, under a different handle, and I really doubt   
   that, he/she's keeping a consistent, several orders of   
   magnitude difference in the vehemence and poison content of   
   the posts.  Could she be Ford in a velvet glove, sure, but I   
   doubt it.
