Well, there is a subtext, of course, and I admit that I'm not best happy
that dave bircumshaw has been kicked off poetryetc.
But believe me Randolph, it's not "hiding behind a joke" -- I find much of
what has happened recently on petc beyond belief, and I've been trying +not+
to get involved, but I admit that in this case my temper got the better of
me and I had to vent my frustration somehow.
Better that than the things I was thinking, and didn't say, believe me.
Also, I think it's actually a rather good reverse-pun joke, like calling a
ranch "Horizon", as that's where the sons raise meat.
