What a paranoid question to
ask if Nieuwland Jeroen exists. Yes of course I exist and the
name is Jeroen and what does it matter who I am? I just don't see the need for
people to insult each other, especially on a Poetics list where other
people get to read along. I too think Kent Johnson rocks, and
I'm all for goof-droids, most poets would fall under that category
anyway. I resent resentment is all. I think direct, harsh
criticism is important, but that it can also be voiced in an affirmative
way and just think it's a shame that instead a lot of energy by
a lot of intelligent people often devolves into resentment and cynicism.
Ciao,
Jeroen

It may be, but Judy started the personal abuse by repeatedly calling me a
goof-droid--whatever that is--for no reason whatsoever, other than that she was
having a bad day.
I?m willing to let the matter rest, as I said in an earlier post. If Judy and
Robin also let it rest, we can shake hands and forget it.
