I haven't seen such pathetic back-peddling and cover-ups since Watergate. That is offensive to my delicate Dune sensitivities, and I shall not forget the affront, sir!

liebkraft (or whatever) is, always has been, and always will be a complete dumbfuck. Don't waste your time.

That right there is their whole stance on the problem. They don't want to know. They have stuck their heads in the proverbale sand and refuse to see the pack of truth set before them.

I know he writes his name together, but I seperated it because that's how I see them now. They seem to act like lieing is a craft.

(although I guess I should have posted this in the section "posts that I think SHOULD be deleted.."

I haven't checked, yet. Can't get there from here.

Nope, not banned.

A very minor point.

What bothers some is how the HLP renounce the DE yet the new authors seems to have "borrowed" some ideas from it.

But I think this is very low on a very long list of reasons.

I love how these dumbfucks feel capable and empowered enough to summarize our positions.

I can see what you mean Eyes.

Chig, Freak, does SOD imply that FH would approve of nuDune and that if He did we would too?

edit; Anyone? The more I look for meaning in that sentence the more it looks like the work of the mad preposition, Onasander.

I'm so overwhelmed with supportive ideas I can't pick one.

How do you mean, within the narrative text or in the intro, what?

edit; I was a little hasty in trying to compose a compact question. Sorry about that gents, I attempt to clarify.

So OHers dislike KJH because they've mistreated McNelly. I never knew they had really but don't doubt it.

FH could respond to McNelly's work and he can't to the new stuff.

After a lot of head scratching; I make a guess about SODs reasoning, first, like any preeq, we aren't capible of thinking for ourselves and have chosen to follow FH. To me this represents a rare peek into how a preeq mind works, their world veiw is that of sheep following various sheperds, all sub consiously- no preeq would admit to it. What makes this interesting is that he assumes that our shepherd wouldn't approve of mcDune. Second, perhaps the SOD intends to take the sting out of OH reasoning by making us understand KJH is only acting out of jealosy and therefore can't be blamed? Sounds goofy to me too but show me where i'm wrong.

So for FH's approval of the new books, we'll have to take the publisher's word for it, for now at least

This sentance would seem to support either supposition, it's anyones guess what SOD really meant.

In the spirit of giving credit where it's due, this is an above avarege preeq. He uses complete sentances and decent paragraph structure. Mysterious as it is, he has a thought and presents it consistantly in his para. Give him a few years and he might just be a convert.

I obviously can't complain about anyone elses spelling. Sorry.

Sorry, brainfart here; I didn't go back and reread the context, thought you were asking about something in the book Sandworms (SoD).

I really haven't paid enough attention to Sparrow's comments (other than to tell they're annoying ) to feel capable of saying what he thinks. (I did pop over to FED2k last night and respond to his comment on a thread about what happened to Salusa Secundus, in which he was citing The Dune Encyclopedia in a way that made me think he thinks it's somehow relevant. If that helps. )

Oh, the DN blog is amusing at the moment:

Uhm ... that means the site is hacked, no?

It takes till page 119 to find a normal blog post again. It all started on August 13th ... so nobody from the offcial Dune has visited their own bloody board for five days and counting. Wanna bet that because of mentioning it here is the first hint something is not okay?

I didn't even realize that the Dune Novels site had a blog.

But, yeah, way to stay all over it, Freakin Meow. Seriously, does anyone know of a more inept site admin.?

But he is so busy banning sock-puppets that really aren't sock-puppets but might be since they can't prove they're not so they must be so therefore he's got to ban them before......

No you're right he's just a 4F moron.

I sense a little bitterness.
