The Weathermen were apparently an offshoot of Students for a Democratic Society. No wonder the US needs over 1000 right wing hate groups to protect us.

They need to retract that piece, with the notice on the front page.

Come to think of it, âattack and dethrone Godâ is pretty much the plot of most Brandon Sanderson novels.

what effect might that have been?
looks like her column appears about once a fortnight.
The tone of the piece, for me. Iâll see what her older columns are like.
Her older columns seem more reserved, though thatâs not a word Iâd use to describe her writing.

In âAt Northport Watering Hole, Kerouac Was Just Another Drinkerâ [ Sept. 13 ] , Patrick Fenton neglected to mention Truman Capoteâs flip dismissal of Kerouacâs work as follows, âThatâs not writing, thatâs typing.â While this evaluation was not without merit, I must agree with Mike McGrady, quoted by Fenton as having declared Kerouac âimportant.â Certainly, âOn the Roadâ was a faithful depiction of youthful despair over the order of things as they saw it. McGradyâs praise is not to be taken lightly, coming as it does from a serious journalist (âA Dove in Vietnamâ) and mastermind of the boffo sex spoof âNaked Came the Stranger.â I would add that Capote was a bit of a poseur himself, his enormous gifts notwithstanding. His professed invention a new genre, the fictional biography (or whatever exactly he called it) with âIn Cold Bloodâ was really a veiled excuse for not having to be accurate. EWIN RITCHIE Elmont

I should say âThatâs not writing, thatâs trolling.â
