Now we're saving a vampire from vampires. I got two words for that -- Nuh and uh.

Compassionately intolerant

. If dear Gus has in fact died, I think he would enjoy this thread discussion. That is my personal view.

This is what I'm saying. I can see him here, knee deep in the thoughtful.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

If dear Gus has in fact died, I think he would enjoy this thread discussion.

I think he'd consider it the best wake ever (except, maybe, Tim Finnegan's).

I do just want to add that as a practical matter, when donations are being solicited in someone's memory, I want to be damned sure the person both existed and died. That's not to take away from the goodness of donating to charity under any circumstances, of course.

information libertarian

To msbelle's questions: a PhD received overseas would not be findable in Dissertation Abstracts, but if an academic ever published any article at all (in the US or abroad, including in foreign languages), it would probably turn up on Google Scholar or a for-pay site like Web of Science. Adjunct Professors usually show up on faculty lists as "lecturer," and there were some lecturers and staff people, some not Phds, listed on the UWEC site.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Heh. I'm imagining that when I die, someone tries to Google "Sunil Patel" and is like FUCK THERE ARE FIFTEEN THOUSAND OF THEM.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, but this one is actually you, right?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

thanks flea, I appreciate the knowledged response. That was factual and helpful information that in no way insulted me nor anyone else on the board (at least the way I read it). Just exactly the kind of post I love.

That it is!

Huh, that's a pretty good article. I'm surprised I wrote it.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

That he would. Though I suspect he'd prefer a bit more scotch.
