Tony Franciosa? Wow...now you're going back a ways, like 40-50 years.

To "newbies" who are reading all these posts and wonder what it's all about, where's the Newton talk in Newton Talk? Well, sometimes we talk about that too.

I've always thought that it was this sort of thing, the back-and-forth wordplay,  that made us better and more closely knit as a group. Which, in turn, makes us better able to help others and ourselves with the things that ARE on-topic.

And, there is a certain social aspect to this as well...correct?

Thanks,
