Maybe I should stick to one controversy at a time, but I'm squarely in step
with SBear on that walking tower machine. I hadn't meant to be sarcastic (as
someone seemed to think) when I called them taluses, btw, but had
momentarily forgotten about the caterpillar treads.

As for Vironese names; all I meant is that it can help when there are
duplicate names. We have only one Adam, so that isn't a problem. But I felt
uncomfortable, at least at first, referring to "Borski," while "Robert"
would have been confusing. And two names is too long, especially in the heat
of battle.
