Oh no Junichi, please don't jeopardize your reputation over Tim's raunchy
proselytizing... he's a varmint and he can't help himself.   (Hi Tim! ;-)

Anyway, much as I would love to believe the naughtier origin (think of how
the biographies would have to be rewritten!), I think you have the true
meaning of Glenn's comments, even if they aren't quite as much fun. Best
wishes on your continued translation.
