/-\ndrew, I thank you for your concern and your sensitivity in the handling
of this issue, but my dubious Y-index has already been discussed on this
list:

Not surprisingly, it was `/anick who pointed out my misfortune on the above
posting.  I'd like to mention that alien-in-training, Markko Nippula, who
hasn't finished with anything worse than a -6 Y-index since TPR(0,1) has a
Y-index of 143.  That is the downfall of the Y-index, if your first outing
is bad, you're screwed for life.  At his current pace, Markko would need 18
more months of monthly golf tournaments just to get back to a Y-index of 0.

Hmm, even after that little rant, I don't feel any better.
