Then you're being overly defensive, and reading too much into my post.  See 
David's post for what I meant.

By the way, as a word of advice, if your post was intended as 
"tongue-in-cheek", try and avoid references to wartime tragedies like Pearl 
Harbor.

None of the above is correct.  I don't watch the show, and I'm unaware of 
its timeslot.  I'm not even in the U.S. at the moment.

I don't subscribe to vertpaleo, and I have nothing to do with providing 
sculptural opportunities.  Sounds like a few issues are surfacing here.

I didn't say that at all.  Again, you're reading too far much into my post.

OK.
