    You got that right.

>If there is such a thing as integrity, Dennis has become its definition.

    Jeeze, gimme a break!  When you heap that kind of compliment
    on a guy, you just crush him under the sheer weight of the
    focus it will take to live up to the d*rn thing.  Not that I 
    wouldn't mind being the person you describe.  It's what I'm 
    working toward.  Believe me when I say, I have a very long way 
    to go to deserve the compliment.

    Integrity is an attribute of God.  The rest of us are toadly
    fragmented and contridictory in comparison.

    I could tell you some stories. :)
