. . . relatively sane, and not obsessed with hating Rudy and gays I assume the 1984 in your screen name indicates your fondness for the kind of doublespeak which describes the left-wing New Yorker as a "conservative."

Dear Professor,

I am guesing that English Literature is not your field of study. George Orwell coined the terms "Newspeak" and "double think". You have conflated the two.

There are few better than Mr. Orwell. I highly recommend his 2 books of essays. Almost everyone can benefit from fully appreciating that clear writing is a direct function of clear thinking.

BTW, You never answered my question. Are you a tenured faculty member? If so, what is your field of expertise?
