FYI, in case it needs to be said: this was NOT meant as
an attack on Robert, his past, his upbringing or his family
life. I shouldn't have used his name as part of my questions
to him. They were meant more as rhetorical questions rather
than inquisitive ones.
I don't know what the knee-jerkers around here would
interpret what I said, so I'm going to err on the side
of caution.
