God forbid I should ever deconstruct anything...luckily my academic
experience ceased prior to that particular fashion. But I do in fact speak
and write (not the pure tongue of Castile) maybe more like columbian. And,
apropos foax who deconstruct or otherwise, one thing I *did* learn at
"university" is never to leave anything to the (faux) experts...
