I have no informed opinion on Lerner, but I wanted to interject (mainly 
to Carrol) that if I met the "me" of 20 years ago in a dark alley today, 
I'd probably look up and down the alley to make sure no one was 
watching, and then slug myself to teach myself a lesson. I was pretty 
fucking unenlightened, politically speaking. 20 years ago, let alone 31, 
is an awfully long time.

Actually, I recognize that slugging people silly isn't necessarily 
putting them on the path to enlightenment, but you get the point...
