1984 Foreword: Not What "They" Were Expecting, Apparently

[slothenvypride]

I've never absolved myself of being rude, Rob.  I know I'm an asshole.  No hypocricy here. But I'm not ungrateful, least of all to egalatarian Dave who was trying to provide us ALL with passages of the Foreward to get us started on a discussion. And note the haughty expectation of how "someone" will provide Rob with what he wants. Diverting this topic away from the fact that you owe Monroe a simple apology only shows what a dick you are, Rob.   Sad, really.

(And note the concerted effort by him/them/who cares to divert any list-discussion of the foreword with flamebait and spam on all fronts. Quite funny really.)

I'm pretty sure somebody will scan it for those of us who've asked - I certainly would've - or else it will be up on the web eventually. It's no drama.
