From the desk of Mindles H. Dreck:Back From Time Off
I hadn't noticed that sophismata is back, with lots of interesting new graphs and quantitative observations. This is great news! Go immediately and have some fun.
...Unless, of course, you want to read more literary deconstruction of "pre-emptive" and "2X4". If so, go here and search [CTRL-F] for "denotative" for the latest amusing words on all that.
Dammit, don't get our hopes up with that header! Here I thought I was going to read about Megan's lightning-fast recovery from AOS (Asshole Overload Syndrome), but alas, not so.
Checking out the comments on Megan's last post was a mistake, though. At least the level of vitriol is down a bit, but good heavens, do these passionate opponents of any hint of violence REALLY take themselves that seriously?
Posted by: MWB on February 18, 2003 11:50 PMThe LRF humbly confesses to having committed egregious inadvertent definition-switching in that post. For the record,
denotation -- literal meaning
connotation -- associated meanings
Humble apologies to any who were confused by the error!

Posted by: Tom Roberts on February 19, 2003 07:33 PMThis is off topic, but I can't find a contact email for Jane or Mindles. I like this site very much, but the comments are hard to read. I have a colorblindness that makes the gray-green color of the comments really hard to read.
Would you consider a color change, or moving to black, for this poor ol' colorblind grizzly? Thanks!
