resending this after two notices that I must add something to the text.
Patrick,
This is because (non-sequitur notwithstanding) the whole extended and
embarrassingly affected discussion on Prynne (especially the stylishly
self-conscious and adjectivally-tortured post by Candice that shut everyone
up) was very much rooted in a passive-aggressive response to the Lacan posts
(i.e., now we're gonna show the motherfuckers how to talk about poesy and
what proper decorum is, etc.).
So I'm sure you will be responded to, once the contrails dissipate and
everything goes back to "normale," in the sense of "ecole."
you are a good guy.
