Dear Amy-
Many thanks for your well-worded and tactful reply ... and I see that you obviously did quite well in English grammar and composition! I appreciate the response: your doing so let me know of some of the dynamics here and put a friendly touch on the forum. So thanks again!
I still plead ignorance on the subject’s subject matter (and in most areas of life!), but having read your instructive message, I realize I may have unwittingly picked a "hot-button" topic for one of my first Forum forays. Next time, more diligence in topic selection!
I will send a message to you via e-mail so that you can elucidate said points further.
For future Forum topics, I might post a few questions on
Willy Coppens and
Paul Bäumer, and maybe on Heurtaux, Madon, Bourjade, Henri Farre sometime along the way as well.
Best wishes,
-George
