Dear Barry,    (01)

I am simply making the assumption of John Sowa's Lattice of theories
which allows your (obviously mistaken:-) view of what a dog is as well
as my (obviously correct-:) view.    (02)

For what I want to do I need only one Fido (I don't need an extra one
for his life process) and one dog. I'm just not so mean that I would
wish to deprive you of yours.    (03)

with kind regards    (04)

Matthew    (05)
