Aaah, Lance, finally...
Waiting for a response to my original question to you, which was:
--------
So, Lance, just curious, why do you feel the urge/need/desire
to write something "on topic" after writing off-topic stuff?
Was it because you felt bad that you wrote off-topic stuff?
Are you trying to make up for the bad thing by doing something good?
Does it mean that we can apply that principle in general - do something
bad knowingly and then do something good after that so as to assuage
the guilty conscience?

Hmmm.. sounds like words of wisdom, but unfortunately they have no
relevance to the matter being discussed. All I asked was a simple
question (see above) which you still haven't answered. I never
asked you implicitly/explicitly to poke fun at me or anyone.
Also, you gotta be careful when you use words like "...in the context
of running..." By doing so, you are implying that you will only react
only if it is in the context of running. But as you might recall from
your original post, the converse of that is exactly what prompted me
to ask my specific question to you.
A red herring is usually not a healthy thing.

Relax, pal, I'm doing the same. I'm just trying to stir things up a bit.
I issued you a challenge, the outcome of which is a reflector of your
real world characteristics. So, one could say that it is a real world
challenge.
To make it more explicit, infotaining, and provocative: If you are bold
enough to write off topic stuff, are you man enough to let it be as it
is or do you feel the need to weasel your way out of being accused of an
off-topic violation by inserting a line or two of on-topic stuff?
> do you have a specific question for me? ask away....
Once again, I'll just cut and paste the original post wherein lies
embedded my specific questions to you. Now, it's all up to you, Lance.
Can you answer it? Can you prove that you can honestly, yet infotainingly,
answer a simple question? To do so is not simple, but impossible is nothing.
