I have praised his wit in the past on the old Phil-Lit list.  I find him very 
witty.  Witty but wrong.  If we could only change his mindset, he could be a 
force for Truth, Justice and the American Way.  But you can't always get what 
you want.

  Sorry to break this news to you big guy but nothing I write changes the mind 
of anyone on this list who disagrees with me.  But I think I'm winning over 
Omar.


  His book is the funniest in the death of the West genre though I know that 
isn't saying much considering the authors of the other books.

brightest light in the harbor and he's always so heavy handed in his prejudices 
that he might as well be me
