a watching brief

Our own JD raises the suspicion - which has been mentioned
on the list before - that the other JD, the Great JD, could himself
be a member.
To judge by the prim disapproval which has so swiftly met
Joyce Maynard's revelations, the suspicion must be quite widespread.
And the hushed, respectful tones which `mr. salinger' is referred
to reminds me of nothing so much as the furtive nervousness with
which the Catholic members of the class used to cross themselves
when one of the naughty atheists stood up & challenged God to strike
him down with lightning.
