Dear Art -
Regarding all this discussion of what we should be called, I certainly
haven't done anything as magnificent as your epitonium book, but I have had
a couple of brief articles published and Dr. Bill Emerson and I
co-authored a new species. I know I am not in your class so I couldn't be
a Sergeant-Major; but I think I deserve more than a Drill Sergeant. Maybe
I could be a Sergeant-Lieutenant (or is there a height requirement for that
rank)? I am also curious as to whom you would rank as a Four-Star General.
