Do you feel you have to retain the right to call me a "rhinoceros" from
time-to-time?

Without calling into question your ability to read, I am obliged to point
out that I did not, in fact, call you a rhinoceros.

I think it is equally important to point out that Scott did not say you did,
in fact, call him one Dave! He merely inquired if you wished to retain that
right (if in future you decided you felt you needed to).

  On further reflection, I see that you are correct, although I further
assert that I did not claim that Scott accused me of calling him a
rhinoceros; I merely asserted that I had not thus far called him one.
Regardless, my apologies to him for inferring his initial inference
incorrectly, in effect inciting inference interference.  That said, I do
indeed reserve the rhino right in the future, just as I recognize his right
to refer to me likewise.

     Dave!

FUT OT.FUN, I guess...
