I can verify that Carl did indeed call Jon Bible a neo-romantic in this thread. And you know what? They remain respected colleagues.
Carl has called me a neo-romantic on more than one occasion. Carl and I also remain respected colleagues, and friends.
Carl has called several umpires that I know neo-romantics. They, too, remain respected colleagues, and friends.
Carl called Bfair a neo-romantic, and we haven't heard the end of it.
Sometimes, folks, a label is
not insulting, nor is it intended to be. I can remember the fervor created by Carl's labeling a group who opposed him as, "The Gas House Gang." The targets of this label were incensed at the name-calling - - until they found out what it meant, and that it wasn't an insult at all!
Do yourself a favor. If you see a word you don't understand, look it up. You may save yourself some grief.
This coming from a
proud neo-romantic.
