A-and I did mean to distance Wyatt from Roark after stating the
resemblance, but got distracted --

Roark lacks a certain quality, let's call it likeability?  He's always
up on his high horse.  He doesn't have any sense of irony.  I feel
sure that he would disdain my friendship.  None of that's completely
true of Wyatt...right?




sorry. . .I looked that "fountainhead" quote up to agree with you
but. . .
. . .my qualifiers got in the way

i get so pissy when i think of the unlikeable howard roark

. . and whilst agreeing with you i bitterly recalled howard roark

wyatt suffers from pride like howard roark but not so bad


take care
