Thank you for this follow up to John McCreery's post and to my
earlier one. I imagined a service. John told me that the Japanese
already have such a thing and now you show me that the Indians have
already done it also. In a global economy, surely this is surely a
good sign--for once we can copy something that has already been test
marketed.
Thus today I am putting you all up for rent. For a small fee and the
price of a plane ticket each, the entire list will agree to attend
anybody's wedding and act like learned friends of the bride or
groom. But what to call ourselves? Rent-an-opinionated-git doesn't
seem quite right.
