    It is interesting and a bit ironic that Pound in making his "race
prejudice as red herring" statement in GK was predicting his own future
destiny and sacrifice as scapegoat (and he even looked like an old goat,
bearded and dishevelled) for a guilt-ridden generation, guilt being the one
and only necessary element to fuel the furnaces of the Judeo-Christian
soul-processing plant of the self-righteous.

    "Great Spirit grant me wisdom... that I might not feel guilty for the
things I have not done." (Bob Neuwirth)

p.s. The subtle snobbery which on occasion visits this list is absolutely
genteel and only exceeded by its polished art of plagarism.  Sons of
Tarleton, what panache! Talk about elitism! Fare thee well, Epicureans. I
just dropped in to see that things hadn't changed in 30 years.
