1042.0. "Standard Analogy Disclaimer" by REGENT::BROOMHEAD (Don't panic -- yet.) Wed Mar 21 1990 12:19

    The above analogy is a valid analogy to the extent that I, its
    author, deem it to be valid, and not one simile farther.  Attempts
    to push this analogy beyond its intended bounds are in no way
    authorized by me, and will be dealt with accordingly.

    Many moons ago, in this conference, either in V1 or V2, I composed
    something like the base note, attached to one of my many analogies.
    This disclaimer was cheerfully welcomed as a useful addition to
    the traditions of Womannotes.
    
    I have put it in for the benefit of those who never got to read the
    original version (which I can't find, of course).

    Thanks, Ann. This just serves to remind me again, how cyclical this
    file is...

1042.4if the analogy fits use it.DELNI::P_LEEDBERGMemory is the secondWed Mar 21 1990 12:3811

	Ann, I remember the content of your disclaimer but then I seem
	to have a better memory than some people (though I have trouble
	with names).  Why I even remember when I asked a naive question
	and was informed that it was not quite on target that I went back
	and checked my information and then rephrased it to try again.

    I'd like to copy it to a permanent, easily accessable place for use as
    a "meter stick".  Where would be better:  1.*  or (I think it's) 20.*
    "Notes Hints".
