To All: I do repent me of ever bringing up the subject of Commonwealths, States, and so forth. I had no idea that what I thought was pretty harmless (yes, and also useless) stuff which those who weren't interested could ignore would give rise to such hostility and hurt feelings. My feelings have not been hurt; no one has been unkind to me. I hope I have been unkind to no one. Nonetheless, I still feel uneasy about the ensuing ruckus following my silly posting. George Andes
