Sarcastic? No.

I was simply parodying the absurd posts about the meanings of various
songs, and the comical over-reaction of many of the list/digest/newsgroup
readers to interpretations they don't share.

I think most people got it, but RedRamGrl clearly--in her words--made me
the fool and put me in my place.

Who's smirking now, RedRamGrl?

How can this be? Kate Bush's song predates the movie AND the book.

Someone better do something about that FAQ...and don't leave it to the
Digest People--we all know about THEM!
