Maybe it was a typo and he meant to say that yours was the *sexiest* post.

If you wrote a sexist post, I either didn't read it or didn't perceive the sexism in it, so I can't help you much with that.

I do have a question for you, which I don't think anybody else could possibly answer.

Many years ago, the Soviet embassy used to loan prints of classic Russian films to the University of the Philippines, which showed them to sparse audiences. Once, for complicated reasons, I went to see a film there called, I recall, Andrei Rublyev, which was all of 3 1/2 hours long, black and white, and absolutely stunning, one of the best things I've ever seen on a screen. I've seen no mention of it anywhere since, met nobody who has heard of it. Even Google.com draws a blank, except peripherally: the movie was a series of vignettes from the life of a medieval master icon carver, and while Google mentions nothing about the movie, it does confirm that a famed icon carver of that name did in fact exist.

Does such a thing really exist, or did I get my hands on some really good acid?
