worked up the strength to try to read the post by elizabeth moon everyone is talking about, and I feel sick. I'm horrified that this is coming from one of next wiscon's guests of honor. I honestly could puke.

I can't deal with that guy going on in the Shetterly thread about how you can't use West Africa as an example and how Nigerians are dumb. I am not a person who trolls! I don't know what has come over me.

He's not a canary in the mineshaft! He's like a mole in a mineshaft! WHEN YOUR MOLE HAS GIVEN UP THE GHOST AND IS ALL "ACK...AIR PLEASE!" YOU HAVE PROBLEMS.
