"Ello" yourself, Craig.

Well, if it makes you happy to dig into person lives, merry christmas.   
The "hypocracy" of an author, I take for granted.  We all have 
incongruent juxtapositions in our lives, we all lead lives that are at 
times odd and inconsistant dichotomies.  Any individuals' personal 
hypocracies are, well, personal.  As Val Kilmer said in Tombstone, "My 
hypocracy only goes so far".  Amen.


Namaste,

Thor

Actually it does bother me what the lives of my favourite authors are 
like. if i was to find out that a loved writer of mine had done 
something exceedingly amoral then i wouldn't be a part of a list like 
this for them. particularly if their lives stood in such a direct 
opposition to their books. i mean hypocrisy would come into it to 
such an extent that it would undermine everything they had written. 
saying one thing and doing another is something most of us are 
guilty of but writing and <italic>publishing </italic>one thing in 
opposition to 
practice (digging into the ethos of a life here)? that would bother me 
. . .


and hello to lynda. just move bloomberg out of the way and take 
the comfortable chair . . .


ta ta,


craig
