hi j,
No, you didn't. But in his reply to the earlier posts Ram did say that the
National Arts Club should be praised not attacked. My point is that
statements celebrating Ram's achievement posted as a response to the alleged
attackers, while celebratory, do not address the point at issue. To present
them as a statement which you are standing by (a covert piece of product
placement?:) reinforces the suggestion that us attackers in some sense also
oppose that, and not just the mandatory wearing of suits, or the blithe
presentation of such an edict as if it were the most natural thing in the
world.
What are the chance's of changing the list's name to UNpoetryetc, with the
theme song of "I'll walk the line"
best
Randolph
