I overheard Robin and Jim Casto talking to each other:
RA> JC> Several months ago I mentioned Sherman Alexie's newest book, "Indian
  > JC> Killer". I think _one_ person indicated they had read it.
RA>I got it as a Christmas present, but didn't jump in on the discussion--I
  >tend to run way behind on reading mail that isn't addressed to me and I
  >feel at a distinct disadvantage when it comes to discussing literature
  >even though I do a lot of reading.  You are definitely more scholarly
  >than I!
Wait a minute, Robin!  You and I chat about almost anything.  We've had
some really good discussions about racism, and the economy, and
reservations, and wannabees, and laws, and all sorts of things.  You
know a whole lot.  You've seen a whole lot.  And you certainly *do* have
important things to say to Jim.
