    Oh, and by the way, Steele

    As a whole is definitely a synonym for most. I did not put the words "as a whole" in quotes, when I described your post, and therefore, by the generally agreed-upon rules of discussion, I was paraphrasing, not quoting you. The paraphrase was fair and accurate, I stand by it, and no retraction will be forthcoming from me.
