I agree. I heartily enjoyed this entry. It was succinct and interesting, and it balanced earnest understanding with honest satire very well. This is difficult to do when evaluating ancient texts, and I for one appreciate it.

What impresses me about all of the attention this page has received, critique etc, is that I read the book about three months ago between 11:30pm-2:00am on a Thursday/Friday night.

And, judging by how full of useless facts a Guide page has to be to qualify for Editing, my anal retention must be quite good too .
