Two recent (and unrelated) quotes from net.singles:

> For a good reference, read `` In search of excellence ''. It's on the best
> seller list. 

< I agree with this statement, basically.  It does remind me of a past
< episode from Sally Forth (found on the comic's page of many newspapers).
< ...
< I do believe there's a grain of truth there.

Great.  People who read best sellers and derive impressions of life from comics.
Since I get all my news from a paper without comics and few (if any) reviews of
best sellers (and no cigarette ads, neither), do I have any common basis for
discussing anything with these people? 

And last week I was defending the discussions in net.singles...
Live and learn.

I'd rather be reading NYR,
