Well, as the discussion with Mark and me points out,
some like it hot, and some like it cold. What the
author of the program probably wishes he had done
is allowed the user to set a keyword that would give
the user whatever he or she wants.

I don't think you have missed the point. Although
I'm pretty sure I have been missing the point for
quite a while now. I *think* I understand it now.
I'll find out for sure the next time I try to teach
