Alas, no, I didn't realize that was a bunny line!  MIT didn't teach me
that.  And I've never had a TV, so never seen Bugs Bunny.  (well, we did
have one when I was a kid, which was maybe when Bugs Bunny was on - but I
didn't watch it.  I'm a boring MIT geek, no TV for me...)

So my apologies for thinking an estimable quote was just a plebeian spelling
mistake!  (oh, and thanks to the spelling checker, or else I would have made
my own mistake, since I didn't know it's "plebeian" and not "plebian!"  Very
bad to correct other folks' supposed spelling mistakes, and then make errors
of my own! ;-)

p.s.  To those about to object that it's not Friday - not to worry, I won't
post any more on this issue!  ;-)
