Carol:
Now that's a strategy I can live with (unless the fourth word is "a,"
"an," or "the," in which case I'd better make it the fifth word)! 

Let's try it with Annemehr's signoff:

"wondering whether a full of jargon (Age or otherwise) poses
difficulties for a"

Yeah, that'll work! <obvious wink>

Carol, who thinks that crossing out every *jargon* word might work
even better ;-)
