I don't really enjoy bad mouthing anyone, perhaps simply because if people speak ill of me they do it behind my back. That said, for all his passion and conviction JJG is quite a horrible person. A friend of mine referred to him a few weeks ago as "hating white people", which seemed a bit exaggerated, but having heard another friend do so today as well, it is perhaps not so false. And his of me (or rather, me and my suggestion to try and get P55ers together for coffee) as proof that all Princeton kids are effete liberal racists in contrast to students at Northwestern at U. Chicago, is, um, wow. That said, credit where credit is due: he did provide a special exemption for three P55ers whom he specifically considered to be down with the people.
Anyhoo, I now have a nice number of flames sent to the P55 list archive. And most interestingly, John Fish received pretty much every one.
