I visited the website mentioned by the otherwise anonymous "pan"
(http://www.proeuropa.org/benedict.html), and found a strange hodge-
podge of a few paragraphs of Fredrich Heer, a not-particularly-
accurrate timeline about Benedictine monasticism, press cuttings
about child abuse, press releases from the EU and the american
college republicans, and the offer of an "International Press Card"
if I sent $30 to Massachusetts.
Has ol' George pulled an elaborate April Fool's trick on us,
or is this merely a proprietary brand of pork-based luncheon
meat in a handy tin...
