And just what call was there to inject a complexion?? Shame on ya. How do you escape leaving the impression you've only known Heinlein's works second- or third-hand, from invidious persons lacking RAH's personal virtues, and apparently resentful of them into the bargain? He knew they existed, and had some choice words for them, too. (A couple of examples stole... a donkey's gravestone.)

Really, "competent adult with etc." would have been much more accurate. Certainly less sloppy of conception.
