Well ! I can't let that one pass. Let it be noted that Robert Dawson does
not quote but paraphrases Humpty Dumpty. The correct quotation is:

"When I use a word, " Humpty Dumpty said in rather a scornful tone, "it means

I get your point. I see this sequence as an example of how good dialogue can lead
