As I see it, for now Bill's words are all that matters, and not whether or not he understood and represents Strutwolf's words correctly. That may be an interesting matter in itself, but it falls outside our humble duty as editors. Part of that duty, however, is to correct a sentence in which an obvious error has escaped the previous editors.Jan Krans-Plaisierhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06289844886277555959noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29482423.post-2608398549375100192010-09-21T08:39:41.885+02:002010-09-21T08:39:41.885+02:00I think it would be fair to ask Strutwolf what he ...I think it would be fair to ask Strutwolf what he wanted to say. <br />I am not so interested in what Krans conjectured what Petersen (mis)understood.Wieland Willkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02376942788228063430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29482423.post-63402817763873135742010-09-21T07:57:21.802+02:002010-09-21T07:57:21.802+02:00Thanks Peter, and probably what Bill wanted to say...Thanks Peter, and probably what Bill wanted to say.
