Quail:
"Robert, do not feel the pressure to rush out and defend yourself."

Of course not, Robert, you've got your dogpack to make your excuses for you
and rewrite earlier previous posts for you -- a well-oiled machine you all
are,  Quail/Mailign/rj/rjackson/jbor/rob j/?

Quail/Mailign/rj/rjackson/jbor/rob j/? you all might want to check Derek's
academic bonafides and especially his particular areas of expertise before
you go out on a limb, unless you'd prefer not to contaminate your thinking
with new information. I think he made a pretty good case for the
anti-Semitism of rj/rjackson/jbor/rob j/?'s attack -- but maybe I am wrong
and you, the instant experts on 19th century anti-Semitism, maybe you do
have the real poop on this one.

At any rate, once your buddy rj/rjackson/jbor/rob j/? knew Derek thought it
anti-Semitic, don't you wonder, at least a little bit, why he/she didn't
back off and apologize, why rj/rjackson/jbor/rob j/? continued to fling
what he/she now knew his/her interlocutor deemed an anti-Semitic slur? And
this is the kind of person you want to ally yourself with on Pynchon-L?
Really? Wow. That kind of loyalty generals can only dream about!

Anyway, I guess these means you aren't going to apologize for calling me a
liar.  Bummer.

best wishes

P.S.

James:   "as if any one (else) cares"

It does seems to be causing a certain degree of anxiety for
rj/rjackson/jbor/rob j/?, I was just trying to help by reminding him/her of
the sequence. I'm sure he/she will let us all know the results of his/her
investigation. As he/she did back when he/she was nosing around, trying to
prove that Charles Hollander and I were hacking  his/her PC and  the
Pynchon-L archives -- and that one proved to be more than a little
embarrassing for him/her when word got around to a certain editor, didn't
it Rob.



"Just to clarify. You say that you received the offlist message from
slothrop666 *before* the identical message from Doug went to the list?
