Thank you Marcia for your kind response. I did not ask any questions,
you are correct, and since my writings do not appear in these groups, it
was certainly unfair of me to ask a group like this for an assessment of
a paragraph. I do feel that psychologist is FOS as he is my brother in
law and all my inlaws on that side of the family are FOS. It was unfair
of me to expect anyone to answer that, but I was hoping that someone may
have given me an academic response ... you see ... it's like this. If
one person says he's FOS and the other thinks he isn't, ... that type of
scenario.
