Well, it's gonna happen, Neil. Occasional forays into levity come with the list territory. Sometimes, the pillars will be granite. Sometimes, they'll be marshmallow. Generally, if you just sit back and wait a short while, the light stuff will subside and you can shift it back into the serious mode you prefer. But I don't feel it's appropriate, practical or even possible to control these things.
