To paraphrase Gordon:
“The point is, ladies and gentleman, that gaps -- for lack of a better word -- are good.
“Gaps are right.
“Gaps work.
“Gaps clarify, cut through, and capture the essence of the evolutionary spirit.
“Gaps, in all forms -- gaps for life, for money, for love, knowledge -- have marked the upward surge of mankind.
“And gaps -- you mark my words -- will not only save this thread, but that other malfunctioning site called Audiogon.”
