Admonition received, b-d, which is why I'm changing my own language to say dispensational pretrib premil(lennialist) whenever referring to the "date picker/fortune teller" crowd. Yours isn't the popular Walvoord/Lindsey/Hagee view, and we should acknowledge individual beliefs better, rather than try and shoehorn people (postmils included) into pre-determined eschatologocal viewpoints. It's worth repeating that, if I were (still) premil, I would hold to the same eschatological views that blue-duncan does.
If I can, I'll try to dig up a good article on the differences between the historic premil view, the popular dispensational premil view, and any others I might find as I go along.

I'm confused. b-d refers to "pretribs". You speak of "historic premil". I'm not aware of any historic premil that are pretribbers. The pretrib rapture is a decidedly dispensational invention.
Can someone point me to an article by someone who is not dispensational but is decidedly pretrib?
b-d, did you mean pretrib or premil? Which are you?
