I can hardly attack someone named 'vines', because she's automatically a
fine and elegant person. The way she 'discusses and writes about Great
Books' is an additional proof. However, I may advise her to laugh with good
dirty jokes sometimes (with naked-Lavoisier, if she really cares about),
it's quite healthy for the mind too.
