Actually, at this point, my plan is to give Tim a decent interval to
refactor ndiff so his SequenceMatcher class is exposed and documented --
otherwise *I'll* go in and do it (har! waving a bloody knife!).

His turns out to be the same as the Ratcliff-Obershelp technique I was
using, except Tim had his bullshit threshold set too low (:-)) and let
through matches I wouldn't have.

The only purpose for which power can be rightfully exercised over any
member of a civilized community, against his will, is to prevent harm
to others. His own good, either physical or moral, is not a sufficient
warrant
