Look: I am eager to learn stuff I don't know--which requires actively courting and posting smart disagreement.

But as you will understand, I don't like to post things that mischaracterize and are aimed to mislead.

PTUI!*

Following the surprise success of Great Expectorations, 19th century Flemish novelist, Neti Pott Hawking-Spitz wrote a string of sequels, including Pickbeak Papers, David Hockerfield, Tale of Two Hankies, Mystery of Edwin Drool, Beak Hose, Nicholas Mucusby, and Master Humphry's Clog.

Some people consider these to be great literature, but IMHO, they're hack work.
