Riemannian vs. pseudo-Riemannian, ching ming vs. zheng ming, and all in
public. . . . From a distance, it sounds very much like a pair of members
of the 9th-grade science club, each trying to demonstrate that he's the
smartest kid in the room. Of course that insufferable old radio show "The
Quiz Kids" wound up giving America two good poets, but boy the price was
high. Can we keep the focus on the works of Ezra Pound, please?
 
But you don't KNOW which two poets were Quiz Kids? Nyah nyah. L.E. Sissman
and John Ashbery. Sissman was also the winner of a nationwide spelling bee,
but he went on to turn into an adult anyway. Take him as your role model.
