  1. Slopefarm, I’d love to provide everyone with the instant gratification we all desire (rewrite?) but explaining our entire theory would involve other violations of asshat etiquette.

    Also, I think there’s a definite possibility that DH is correct.

    Etson and JB, what do you think?

  2. “Oh sweeet hay-sus Six!”

    Don’t worry, CH, this was a last gasp of intelligence before summer vacation sets in.

    Kens – nothing wrong with paraphrasing (so long as you cite) and you actually read the text first. Of course kids don’t realize that their teachers have Google too. It’s really scary that lots of teachers don’t care enough to actually check, and just let plagiarism go unpunished.

    Slopefarm, I don’t cough up my theories so quickly…I’m waiting for more PLUSAs to figure out on their own.

  3. I’m not convinced this current “The What” is the original “The What”

    If you go back a couple of years, the writing styles are still much different.

    I think the current “The What” is a character someone is playing. I don’t believe for a moment that he is as incoherent and bipolar as everyone believes.

  4. Funny, Dave. I know a number of phrases of lawyer latin 101, but that’s it. (Some lawyer phrases are actually in old french, not latin.)

    But put the pressure on 6y, not me. He’s sitting on (1) a theory of why what isn’t posting (to which jb is privy) and (2) a theory of what’s identity (which etson apparently has figured out, but isn’t saying). This violates asshat etiquette.
