jep, you are simply RATIONALIZING!!!!!  It's really quite annoying - stop it.
"They're something else now."  BS.  They are what they are, threads of text.
To me, the jury is still out on whether any of the items deleted by valerie
should be restored.  But I will not accept your argument that they have
magically morphed into something more than they were.  Your statements are
self-serving, and I'm tired of hearing it.
