What happened to the smiling, twinkly-eyed Leo I used to know? Have you
been to visit Ralph? If that's it, let me warn you that it takes a certain
flair to get away with what Ralph does, and most of us just don't have it.
Not that you should let that stop you if you feel a certain moral
imperative; just keep it in mind.

I don't think you really need to defend the innocent lamb Mark Adkins. Not
only have we all been unwontedly gentle with him, it looks to me like he's
looking for trouble. If so, there's only one better place he could have
tried.

Rahul
