Denise,
This makes much more sense. It was just hard to believe that someone would
have an understanding wife that knew enough about LBCs to compare them to a
Star Trek episode, The Cage no less (or the Menagerie episode if you prefer
the modified version).
The shock of my interpretation of the time prodded me into what I thought
was an appropriate and necessary reply. Looking back at the original
message, he was talking about his wife trying to fit in the seat and then
in the next paragraph, he mentioned "Denise" which I took to be the wife
previously mentioned. Oops.
I should also mention that I haven't as of yet damaged any bakeware in the
garage. But the thought has crossed my mind, recently no less. Is this one
of those things like the time when Spock said that if he dropped a hammer
(or something else) in a postive gravity field, he wouldn't have to see it
hit the ground to know that it did?
