yeah, I miss jbor, good reality check on how Zoyd isn't really a role
model, among other helpful indications, a-and his pdfs too.
Keith SZ I miss too, again good reality check for me more than once
when dizzied by sidelights my own attempts at close reading spiraled

do...
Andrew Dinn's tenure I missed but what I've gone back and read was inspiring

thoughts and meditations and predications and impressions and links
