Kai, I'm shaking my head. But you know that I do and  so this post is
redundant, I know.
Sorry, but according to a certain "Streitkultur" such personal attacks
surely are inappropriate. The temporary truth is you are flaming Terrance
here without reason and the eternal truth is that there is no such thing as
truth. Like him you should concentrate on the texts in question, on letting
us take part in your widespread reading and good translating.
