immediate access to filling it out and sending to me offlist (and

Carrol and others have argued against the "middle" as a category. i'll
leave it to the learned to hash this one out.

it would probably help to give a list of examples, to indicate what you
are looking for. everyone on this list will circle "agree". hence no
information content.
