So, you're comparing yourself to Swift? ^_^

    Hell no. However, I was pointing out that the smileys need to go 
in places that aren't obvious. "A Modest Proposal" was obviously a
satire, but a good many things earmarked with smiley's are not so
obvious. (The 6th question was one such item, as way my reply, I
think.)

Re Swifts "Modest Proposal"
An odd historical note, some people actually thought he was serious and
there were arguments BOTH pro and con for his "Proposal"

     oh my god....
<pardon me while I go read his "Proposal" again>

OK, well, everyone with any argument whatsoever was obviously not
aware of the American culture. Secondly, they had no more than 2
functioning brain cells beyond those needed for walking and other
semi-conscious and sub-conscious behavior. Thirdly, they were just
plain stupid. Admittadly, it starts out sounding fine and good,
until the exact nature of his proposal becomes clear.
