Would love to read the entire essay, myself. /smile/ You've really got my
interest going.
Maybe it's time to take a break, nurse your cold, get a good night's sleep,
and look at it again tomorrow? There's always the danger there of
discovering that your hard work is, as you suspected, complete dreck. I've
been surprised a few times, though, to discover that the thing I was
convinced was so horrible that I was having nightmares about it is actually
good stuff. /grin/
Hang in there!

They just didn't seem to mesh is all. Maybe I should have posted the whole
essay, or maybe I'm just paranoid. I've been revising them for a couple
weeks.

Except for some extra hyphens and the lack of an apostrophe, what's wrong
with them?
