Bill, I think it is clear to the List that this simply a case of semantics. I have no doubt that Ralph is clear on the need for a beckett. It would have much easier if Ralph would have simply acknowledged what he means by beckett (is it two t's) in his follow-up posts rather than lambasting Bill. As I have stated in a previous post, you do need a beckett! And no, I am not simply trying to stay of the "baloney list". I'm sure I'm already on it. I mean who isn't?
