    Nice parry, gcassels.

    And so civil.

    Thank you for the civility.

    Truly.

    Now I blush a bit for my bit of ad homming.

    You are right. Mr. O'Hehir needs to feel a little less superior. Maybe a lot less superior. The monstrously refined critic is a hoary shtick, isn't it?

    But I stand by my praise of his uncluttered prose.
