Tim Ikeda smirks about a distinguished Oxford professor:

<<My bowl overfloweth... Please, help yourself to all the Brazil nuts
you want but save me a couple pecans. ;^)>>

The "nut" mission continues, eh? It's so easy to slap on this label when
someone disagrees with a cherished position. But it gets to a point of
diminishing returns after awhile. The "nut" allegation rings hollow, leaving
only an empty shell.

Better to discuss the merits. Jim Foley did a good job of this with Goodman.
Would you like to take up Prof. W? And I don't mean by quoting Robert Shapiro
or anybody else. I mean by reading his work yourself, and arguing from that.
I'd be happy to listen.
