It was my distinct impression from the statement at the top of your
gallery: "In no particular Order of Merit or Beauty" that you had no
intention of making those kind of inferences.

By that statement to Jon, am I now to infer by the placement of your own
portrait that you have placed yourself above Joris and Joan in both
merit and beauty? Tut tut. Bad form.

Thank you for adding my portrait to the gallery, even though now the
inference (using your logic) is that I am at the bottom of everyone in
both merit and beauty.
