[Robert Cohen <rlcm17...>]

I know this is frustrating to a scholarly temperament, but I learned this a 
year or two ago, just as a radio listener, I think (i.e., I think that was

seemed absolutely unimpeachable but I can't remember for the life of me 
where/from whom I learned it.  Sorry--will advise if I come across again. --
