Render,

Those are excellent articles: I had linked to the first one on the James Jatras piece, and had also independently found the other, but am waiting to use it on my upcoming piece (yes, there is one!). The heading has something to do with my choice regarding which article to use it for, which can give you a preview of what’s coming.

As for A. Van Hilten, I know you had your disagreements with him and he was known for being abrasive (something I myself have been more than occasionally guilty of) but I would never go as far as to call him a troll. Quite the contrary. In any case, I have never met the guy; in fact, we live on different continents, and Josephine’s reversal here from “sockpuppets” to “sycophants” is laughable.

Stay posted for my next installment: I’m curious whether you’ve already independently seen the rest of my research because I’ve been digging pretty deep.
