How could I forget?(chuckle, chuckle).  First, it was the "Mozart"
intimidation factor, then the "institutional" factor, then the "big-names"
factor, now the Peguin guide factor.  Could there really be an individual
out there who's intimidated by all these mutiple sources?

Of course, these sources do not have the power to intimidate anyone.
They require a "willing" subject, and the correlation between feelings
of intimidation and those of self-worth are very strong.  So, I think
this still all comes down to feeling good about yourself.
