Regarding two items from the Ragozin board --

1) As was mentioned on that site by Patrick Suppes, Ragozin did give Clock Stopper an "s" while Thorograph did not give Clock Stopper an "op" (although the Thorograph text has a "no speed early" comment). Is it possible that a bad start can be factored into the number? I would be curious to know how this issue is handled.

2) In response to Indulto's statement about my attitude towards Marc, I want to be clear about what I did or did not say or feel. I did NOT feel obliged to deny being a particular person (regardless of who that person was -- whether Marc, Alydar, Indulto, myself, or anybody else). I DID feel obliged to answer a particular question put to me by Silver Charm (and I explained this reasoning at the same time I added the statement "I am not Marc"). If Silver Charm had asked if I was Ethel Mertz, I would have denied that too. Such denial would not have expressed an opinion or attitude about Ethel Mertz (may she rest in peace) just as my actual denial was not a statement about Marc.
