I have no real comments to make about your message, except for
bringing to your attention the word "homogenious".  If this was only a
common mis-too-koo for "homogeneous" (64,900 Google hits versus
33,200,000), well then that's that.  Otherwise, it is a stroke of
brilliance.

I strongly advise claiming that your usage was intentional!
