:-)  For functions in general, I completely agree.  I just think that
predicates should always return t or nil, no matter what input they
get.  That way they are useful for walking down lists of stuff and
picking out the ones you're really interested in.  And, dang, that
last message was HTML/MIME again, wasn't it?  And used the wrong email
address for me, too.  I've got to figure out how to use Gnus and keep
the gmail-conferred ability to read my email anywhere.
