Againstthe dave

[John Bailey]

Big fan of Mr Monroe here. One of the most generous presences the list
could ask for. Has more than once mailed me books and essays I can't
find in Australia, without my asking and without asking anything in
return. If that kind off real world largesse means he doesn't have
time to write up an exegesis of every link he posts, who cares. Many
of the things he posts are reposted by others hours or days or weeks
later.
