ADVANCE PLANNING:  The Institute for the Linguistically Impaired is asking for donations for our proposed Edwin Newman Clinic for Temporal Retentives.  Temporal retentives are the pitiful host, many of whom hold public office, with a compulsion to be redundant about time.  They blather about what happened in the past, when they first started.  They still remember their advance planning.  Just recently, they referred back to past history.  Please help.
