Aw, shoot, Michael, be slow to use that scornful phrase, "Get over it," 
when someone cites as vexing something you've just said or done.

You write, "I know Fitzgerald wrote that." I wasn't frowning at what you 
know, but at what you said:

"On Jun 8, 2012, at 2:09 PM, Tom McCormack wrote:

"The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposed
ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function""

And my vexation was only minimally personal; it was primarily concerned 
with my fussy, nerdy semi-determination to get the expressions on this forum 
right.

"Besides, it's in the subject line."

No excuse, Michael. There have been numerous lister variations of the FSF 
quote on the forum in the last few days.   And then comments that begin by 
quoting the variation. 

Look, Michael, you've been caught and called-out for screwing up. Get over 
it.
