To you. And just because you're probably right can you see the proverbial
slipperly slope such a position puts you on? If you can't, turn around and look
slightly upwards.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder is not just our father's cliche.

I always try to be fair.
In fairness to me, I was talking about cutting up my own books, and
not someone else's books.

Just to make sure, I did turn around and look slightly upwards.
All I saw was the ceiling.
