I toddled over to Bret Devereaux's article to check out the classicist discourse, and was immediately riveted by the anecdote about [rhymes with Shmeter Shminger], the eugenicist, having added to his crimes against humanity with a crappy "translation" of The Golden Ass. Not to invoke deep magic, but if he permanently lost the ability to communicate, the world would be a better place. It's not right or good that Harriet McBryde Johnson is gone but that creep is still alive and blathering.

I hope you get some respite soon. I hope Hestia is recovering well too.
