To Garnett, I am the person on this list who from time to time has bothered to respond to some of Shawgi Tell's more inane missives. I was told offlist by numerous people not to bother, most of the people on the list hoping that if he is ignored he will just go away. Maybe so, maybe not. A bit of history is that he used to be on the marxism list doing exactly the same thing. Curiously there are quite a few Stalinists over there who would agree with him. Why he decided to switch over to pen-l remains a mystery. I gave him a hard time over there as well, but he would never directly respond, just as he never does here, viewing to do so as "anti-discussion" apparently. Perhaps he figures he is being more "educational" by preaching to the unwashed and unconverted over here on pen-l.
