And thanks for the heads-up, Laz. I missed the telltale odor of government stooge the first time through this thread, until well into the two-hundred plus posts and another one surfaced.

My concern about government stooges is Biblically-based. As the disciple Peter admonished us, "Be ye aware of the government stooge, above all, the Rapture-denying government stooge, for they are the stinging nettle in a bed of the flowers of God our Father."

As the disciple Peter admonished us, "Be ye aware of the government stooge, above all, the Rapture-denying government stooge, for they are the stinging nettle in a bed of the flowers of God our Father."

You are the victim of a flawed Greek translation.

In reality:

"Peter shouted rudely, Pay Attention to what I'm saying.
Don't get ruptured or fall in a briar patch. My dad said so".

Wearing shoes in the outdoors is also a theme much lost.
Peter was kind of a safety guy.
