I'd like to apologize, if I may ... I fear I let my tyro elan run wild this a m; in not letting it pass, I hope I haven't become a 'bruck-brenner' of sorts. These couple of possibles popped up 'mistically' and I couldn't resist, after a few interim instances of imposed (albeit minimal) patience. I'll try to be more polite & patient & respectful if you'll overlook this exuberant outburst. Your graciousness in allowing me to participate deserves greater deference, and waiting for intervening turns is the least I must do. Thank you.

By the time I got to school it was the opposite:
my feet were ice. Thanks Rhub.
