Evans, Judge,
concurring specially. 1. The majority opinion sets forth a footnote with reckless disregard for relevancy to the facts and the law in the case under consideration. Therefore, while I do not approve of footnotes, I feel impelled to respond to that footnote with a quasi-footnote as follows, to wit:
" 'The time has come,’ the walrus said 'To talk of many things —
Of shoes — and ships — and sealing wax, Of cabbages and kings;
And why the sea is boiling hot And whether pigs have wings.’ ”
As to relevancy, both the author of the majority footnote and that of "Alice Through the Looking Glass” in the quasi-footnote, seem to have striven for irrelevancy, with much success.
2. I concur in the judgment in this case only.
