Bullshit. If you had done any checking, you would realize that the whole essay is, one, much, much longer, and, two, on a different subject altogether. A reader would have to plough through thousands of words on something else before they even began to see anything relevant to the issue of genius. If there had been another way to do this, I would have, but no reader - and you just proved it - was going to trip merrily along several pages of prose on a subject they had not bargained for, merely for the few paragraphs about genius. That is a fact, that is the truth, and the fact that you insist otherwise only proves over and over again that you did not even try to see what the context was. As usual, you assumed the worst of me - you assumed that I was attention-seeking, trying to kidnap your comments section, whatever - and you did not even bother to see whether anything else might be the case. And take down those links. I already demanded it once; it wasn't a suggestion.
