You save a millisecond by leaving out a letter. Evidently you
realized that. And is that supposed to be "Patrician me", or
"Patricia 'n' me", or what?

Nothing wrong with it. We were just remarking its stateliness
relative to the other methods. My CountUp S/G remover does 100
iterations of your 44-S/G removal operations in .6 seconds on my
machine. Clearsgts takes 3.9 seconds -- six and a half times as
slow. That's all. That comes down to about .04 or 1/25th of a
second for a single iteration with Clearsgts. Dunno 'bout you, but
I ain't got that kinda time. Gotta run....
