Jay,

My recent posts assumes the great difficulty of Pound.  My points raised
have to do with finding ways of teaching and getting young people
interested in Pounds work, among others important issues regarding his
poetics, politics, and the relationship between his poetics and politics,
as well as EzP's influence on culture, postmodernism, etc.  I don't think
I need to revisit the issues raised; they are important issues, and will
come up from time to time.  If it helps, think of me as Wei En-Lei, Pound,
Berstein, Steiner, (and many others, although I'm not sure about Steiner,
I will consult my psychic on that one :) now resurrected, as James
Berstein Steiner Stoner Pound En Lei, if doesn't bother me really. I am
glad to _be_ a Pound-like personae.  I'm afraid that Pound would have been
proud.

I'm off to Georgia and will only check my e-mail once or twice, so feel
comfort in the fact that you can go unquestioned for most of my absence.
Smile people, it WILL be a great year for us all! We are already off to a
great start.

respectfully,
Ezstoner

I thought this was a Pound list.   Certainly in the past, before the long
tempus tacendi, it was often very interesting.
The recent spate of adolescent whinings about how difficult our poet is
(why
do people even respond to that stuff? isn't it just a given?), and
questions
about how to teach Zane Grey has me a little confused.
On the other hand, I thanks Charles, Carlo, and some others for their
insights, and especially their ability to form a lively sentence.
I almost miss Wei En-Lei (spelling).   Who'd ever've thunk that?
