Jeremy:
The reference was completely unintentional. I mean that I was
replying to the sentence "stop making sense" in the original posting. I
thought I'd put a quote on top of a quote and be *truly* postmodern. Next
thing I know, there's a actual reference within the field.
Now, how's that for a piece of Postmodernism?
Besides, my friend Chris White is *truly* impressed. :-)
Gloria Monti
Yale, etc.
