Ah, dangit-- forgot to close an italics tag.

My apologies...

...and a broken link.

That will take you right to the thread in question.

Not really looking for a dialogue. I'm comfortable in my assessment of Card as a douche and I really have no desire to revise that assessment. I give no attention to rationality; I have no devotion to civility, no adherence to principled disagreement. I suggest you decide to invest less in these discussion, both time-wise and in terms of mental processing. Your life's too short to deal with middle-school treatments of adult problems.

For future reference, it's best to not call somebody a preadolescent if you're trying to engage in a dialogue with them. Hell, but what do I know, after all, I don't read Orson Scott Card.

I think we can stop here, don't you?

Good advice.
