I don’t expect that’s going to happen because egos are a little too strong in this business.

iirc in some eras it wasn’t unheard of to write a page of a letter and then to write another layer on the same page in a different orientation...so once left to right from top to bottom & then again from top to bottom running from the right margin back across to the left...

that quite specifically fails to address the phenomenon referred to in my comment, which is odd since it was itself quite specific...

not that there isn’t something to what you say but in an increasingly online-dependant system the fact that a minimum of some form of data-capable device is becoming a de facto prerequisite for accessing a good many things that ought not to be denied to anyone (& in some cases are explicitly intended not to be -…

with a list that long it’s a struggle not to see there being grounds for a RICO prosecution...

what can I say...it's something to consider...

I don’t know what the real Dr Emilio Lizardo did to set off this asshole on his seemingly infinite quest to try to drag that name through the mud all over kinja but that is one extreme case of long term butt hurt you have hanging off your comment...
