All really, really good stuff.... but, it's just another
burp from last April 24.....  

At least it's an equal opportunity burping listproc.  It
has successfully shown that it can regurgitate some really
good expositions on doctrine and word study.... the first
time we've seen this....

Usually it "burps" something that we don't really wan't
to see a second time.... heh, heh, heh.....
