wordy1 writes “The NY Times reports on the new play Fat Pig by Neil LaBute. The swinish title refers to the play’s character Helen, a warm and witty librarian who is conspicuously overweight.”

    Re:Noted earlier
    What was your point Nbruce in making this notation to the story? Because you listed the item in your journal should there have not been another posting. You may answer that your point was only to point out that you had something in your journal but if that was the case you should have titled you entry “In my journal” not “Noted Earlier”. When you use “Noted Earlier” there seems to be an indication that the story need not be mentioned again. This might be true if it was a previous news story but it was not. It was a journal entry. Many people do not read the journal entries and I don’t think people should be held to the standard of knowing what is in every journal entry.

    Re:Noted earlier
    Sorry I didn’t use the subject terms required (where is that darn rule book?). I noted it earlier, and that’s it, end of story. It doesn’t mean it can’t be mentioned by 3 or 10 other people who read LISNews. It doesn’t “mean” any of the speculative phrases you intoned. And your point is? Eeeek. This kind of pickiness gives book people such a bad name. Is this what we sound like to the public? Is this a joke?
