From: "Gary Britt" 

So my usage wasn't so marginal after all, if you can't do a compare and
contrast for me.

Dostoeivsky (sic), btw is to authors in general and the liberal
intelligentsia of the USA what all the bogus (awful) Russian rock bands of
the 70's, 80's & 90's were to music in general and rock music press
types of the USA.  His stuff is so boring and poorly composed that only
someone without a life whatsoever could manage to read more than the first
few chapters.  He is rated as a good author only because the liberals who
do the rating were desperate to come up with a good writer from their
beloved USSR, as that helped serve their hate America first philosophy of
life.

Love ya,

Gary
