We aims to please.


Actually you aim to **** off folk.

And allot cheaper than dealing with the
obvious mental effects (and affects) of your own origins.


My origins? Nothing very remarkable there. Born of woman, in the
usual way........or, so I'm told. You?


You know precisely what I am referring to.

Your comments frequently suggest to me very much the thought

processes and history dismissive attitudes of the thankfully deceased

Paul De Mann. What things suggest to you is a source of endless
fascination to me.
I've missed out little chats lately. Have you been terribly busy?


Too busy to waste time on you. But I have noticed that you seem to have a
real pain in the ass since your week at the Ramrod.

De Mann, a prominent Belgium Nazi in his youth, managed to hide this

fact most of his life, while building a very successful career in U.S.

academe
in large part around a scholastic assertion of the impenetrability of
historical fact.


Interesting. Sounds like the kind of guy who would see Israelis
lurking under every rock.


You just love to over compensate by parroting the most narrow-minded slogans
at the drop of a hat. You are too ignorant to know that close to half of
Israeli adults share my views on the need to return most of the occupied
lands to the Palestinians, as does an increasing portion of non-muslim
Americans.


Well, I have a legitimate excuse........I'd never heard of ( DeMann)him

before
now. What a pity that YOU didn't tell him about his options.


Claspy's spelling is the correct one: de Man"

Wolfgang
who considers it quite normal for people to be uninterested in a nut
case's grandiose illusions of olympian descent.


What is "Olympian" about having a Spanish diplomat as an ancestor? He was
mainly trying to describe how he was able to penetrate a bureaucratic
mindset and touch a bit of personal history.
