I certainly don't dispute she is brilliant and gifted.....twisted, IMO....but also brilliant and gifted....

I would never post my resume or CV. Bragging is not virtuous...And certainly you will grant me that I have my virtues...<g>

Gifted is a relative term. There are many gifted people on SI, most of whom don't go around bragging about awards they received in college.

This was my commentary at the time, and I see no reason why it isn't still valid.

And I just received notice yesterday one of my poems will be published in the Pacific Review of poetry. But I didn't want to brag and mention it. However, I feel I might as well mention it since the whole issue is back in the "news" again. So there you go. More evidence. I am very sorry I have to mention this. No, wait, I'm not sorry. :-)
