In a previous article, vnozick@merle.acms.nwu.edu (Valerie Nozick) says:

I guess my tongue-in-cheek was not obvious enough for you, Valerie -
of course I don't believe everything I read. If I did, I wouldn't
be on gaffa very long - I can't believe what I read on here most of
the time, either  (-)  <<little tongue-in-cheek symbol for you.

If I told you that I am only a few months younger than the beloved
subject of this forum, would you believe that, like her, I've actually
managed to learn a few things about newspapers, truth, lies, 
distortions, objective vs. subjective reality (mainly during
my "experimental" years in university)  (-)
and what merits simply a knowing chuckle?

Have a nice day.

David
