Gotta tell you, I loved the Barrett Brown piece.  Please feel free to forward this to him.  Even a self-admitted "sneaky" and "unfair" piece is nothing but a compliment.  And kudos to Steve Brodner for capturing my cheerfully sinister countenance.

I am grateful for Mr. Brown's grudging compliments, as well.  I would say this:  I appreciate some snarky commentary as much as the next person (having practiced a great deal of it myself).  But his catch-the-conservative game, which is fair and square at its root, involves "asking" a conservative something, which in my case he obviously did not do.  He concocted a question about something fairly arcane, and applied as my "answer" a paragraph from a column about something else.  Maybe if one admits to sneakiness up front, that is teflon for whatever follows.  So a small nut-kick for that, but the bottom line is:  fun piece, and I admit to a twisted sense of flattery.

Hope all is well over there!

Regards,

Mark
