I suspect Dan is trying to place Yoshie in the Teresa Ebert/Orange camp since she used the word "postal" a few posts back. She uses the word postal, ipso facto time for long long posts attacking Yoshie for her Ebertness...Of course, the finest and coherent critique of Ebert I have read was written by Yoshie, a while back. Perhaps she could put it back up on the list again? I also found it far more helpful than Butler's response to the Oranges. Not that I mean to say there is nothing of value in Butler however....
