Well, then there's Pierre Lafleur, Lonnie Jaycox, Jeanette Poulton, David Green, Ty Moore, Steve Wall. Daniel Velton. Who could forget John Landon. And some cat named Norbert Sclippa, which I imagined was an anagram but never unravelled it. My head's a name basket, and there's a face attached to each one though I've not met a one of them.

That Australian fellow, government bureaucrat, conservative catholic,
Bev Hogue
Stephen Straker
The guy who wanted to sue the board
David Thingy in Texas

The litigant: Anthony D'Amato, Leighton Professor of Law, Northwestern University

The owner of Phil-Lit, who wanted to smash his own creation, and finally did: David Myers, Associate Professor of English, Texas A&M University

add: Denis Dutton (some sort of owner/founder/director) of Phil-Lit. There used to be a journal, Philosophy and Literature, which he edited. Andreas would know what DD's role was. Now, Professor of Philosophy at the University of Canterbury, Christchurch, New Zealand.

He founded the Website Arts & Letters Daily, and sold it for a handsome sum to the now-defunct Lingua Franca; it's now run by the Chronicle of Higher Education—or so I've been led to believe. Nancy (something) was the editor or compiler of what went onto A & LD before it was bought out by LF.

Except perhaps for Bev Hogue, none of these people made it to Lit-Ideas.

I think the Australian fellow's name was Julian (something). Or Angus...
