You Never Know

It is always interesting to me to see which of these posts will generate comments, and which will not. Often a probing and painstakingly drafted essay on a subject of ancient and universal interest will attract no more notice than, say, an important scientific discovery or a bit of good news from Iraq; but dash off two hasty paragraphs about a civil servant with no brain, or simply let it be known that you’ve started reading a book by a conservative columnist, and we’re off to the races.

    If I had any mental energy left, I would try to be clever and post a long diatribe on something or other.

    But I do not. Sorry.

    [Note: A new comment from Greg Calbi, continuing the previous post’s conversation about fascism, has been moved to that post. Readers can find it here.]
