The other day I said I’d respond to Sullivan’s opus after I read it (I still haven’t; forgot to bring it on plane). Ramesh sent me a note asking if I’d mind if he went first as he’d already read it. I said, sure no problem, free country etc.

I come back to find he methodically unrolled his entire ginsu knife set — complete with that curved-bladed thingamajig no one knows how to use — and dissected the piece like a lab frog. What’s left for me? The punctuation? The kerning? Jeepers.
