You are at your day job now? Good lord.

I am a free lance editor, and work at home. I get the impression you have at least as much free time as I do, though. You are on SI more than I am, certainly. I could match the spirit of that catty jibe with one of my own, but shall not.

You are amazing. You ask me questions that I have answered many times. I go to considerable trouble to excavate and resupply the numerous answers of which you have professed ignorance. I do this twice!....... You complain that my answers are not "to the point."

I am also not blaming the fathers very much, not even those who supply their sons with carfare to the sites of violence and pray for their martyrdom, though their culturally different behavior offends me at least as much as ritual baths offend you, I dare say. But they are dupes. You write,

<<and, of course, the Palestinian powers that be, whatever they are.>>

as though "the Palestinian powers that be" were a mere afterthought on your part and hardly worth mentioning in any case. "Whatever they are" indeed.

Cobe, you wouldn't know a "point" if it stuck you in the eye.
