Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

I knew her as Ann McCoy and I realize I don’t know who McCoy was. I am wondering if she is going to be with her first husband in Grove Hill. She was one of the reasons I ended up with the Red Cross when Hugo paid a visit
