Did you say at one time that you are an attorney? If you are the person I remember, you aren't a criminal trial lawyer. You should be aware that I'm in my second year of a Ph.D. in criminology--so my data may be more accurate than yours.

It's most likely that we have a different understandings of spontaneity. I'm not going to nitpick words with you, however, and I'll just leave my comment as stated.
