The textual fur is currently flying around in various spots on the Internet and I'm too stubborn to give in just yet. But I'm happy to report in this maelstrum, I have heard/read the following things:

"Actually, I think Hobbes is right and I may take it a step further and say that Gardner, himself was a sycophant."

"When I read the words "piss off" [that you wrote in your post], I nearly cheered."

"From what I've seen you write, am I right to assume you have scholarly credentials?" (I'm paraphrasing this because I don't have the email in front of me).


Heh. I do thoroughly enjoy debate, especially when I make headway.

Don't go off half-cocked sweet'ums...the debate still rages; we are simply establishing the parameters of battle.

By the way - I have the DVD of the Handfasting - as soon as Kyle gives it back, I'll make copies and give you one.

Excellent!

And I know the debate if far from over. I was merely celebrating minor victories.

Celebrate away - save a Smirnoff for me.

Presented a theory - a conjecture really. I'm no scientist - in fact, I dropped math in gr. 9 (math teacher told me I was wasting my time as I would probably get married, have kids and wouldn't need it...) Got married had kids but damn, do I need that algebra now...If he hadn't passed on? I would go back, find him and throttle him.
