The last man stares into the void and blinks...
I won't speak for Joe, but I'll speak for myself: I was quite simply
flabbergasted by the message from Harrison and by C.F.Albert's messages.
The former seemed to be absurd overreaction to Dinnian hauteur and the
latter just incoherent. Mind you, I only just skimmed them all, with the
mellifluously poetic first line of gunslinger Cobain's "Breed" coursing
through my head:
"I don't care I don't care I don't care I don't care I don't care"
Cheers,
Paul
