I'm unable to verify that quote. Also, it's irrelevant, and not really true at all.

    You're right, I don't see the humour in this. And it's not pedantic to question a misquoting when the meaning is completely different. Nor is it pedantic to question the relevance of someone's comment. I don't think this quote means what you think it means.

      >>that being mindful about the language we choose to accept socially is in general radical Yeah, you're a hypocrite. I am not upset, but based on your comment history, I actually expect higher of you. "question a misquoting" <-- You didnt even get the FN quote in the first place, then attempt to make yourself all "enlightened" Give me a FN break... Your feigned self-righteous demeanor simply devalues your Truth, and I am assured that you will defend your mental superiority, regardless.. My Grandmother, would oft state: "often in err, never in doubt"
