pen-l rule 37C: don't have a sense of humor (or affect that appearance) if you (think you) disagree with someone. pen-l rule 3.141592: make blanket generalizations about the opinions of entire classes of individuals, e.g., those in academia. BTW, I haven't had time to make any serious comments on pen-l for awhile so I'm just having fun in the interstices. I'll be back. -- Jim Devine / "Reality is that which, when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away." -- Philip K.
