At the risk of annoying two people at the same time with my obtuseness, Robert Borski
has -not- made a solid case that Roy Trenchard is also an abo! There are a dozen
different fingerposts pointing to Trenchard's humanity, and simply re-writing Fifth
Head to one's own satisfaction is no way of getting rid of any of them. Check out my
objections to Robert's arguments in my posts of the 4th and 5th of June 1998, archive
vol. 13.
