I have a retired surgeon friend who is showing ominous signs of incipient
Looney-ism. The problem is that ant-strats lie (e.g. "No-one during his
lifetiome referred to Shakespeare as a dramatist") and intelligent retired
professionals take them seriously because they don't expect outright
mendacity.

Retirees have time on their hands and need hobbies. Maybe I'll take up
the cause of Francis Beaumont after I retire. Mr. Hudson, though,
sounds a bit like a John Baker, Ph.D., D.D., L.L.M., M.B.A., etc.
