Let me publicly appologize for leaving the impression that I was accusing you, syriacus, of lacking anything, be it an appreciation of irony or any other virtue. I am the one to blame for my lack of precision and I'm sorry. You may see in my recent follow up blog I refered instead to a generalized phenemenon among many active conservative bloggers. But you have to admit that it is ironic (I won't say hypoctitical) that Mr. Ashcroft wouldn't do what he had called on young people to do, since by his own admission he thought the letter from Harvard was real. Thanks for hearing me out. p.s. I thought adlaiestevenson didn't read well as a screen name.

Well, I'll admit that there are beneficial things that young folks can do, that older folks don't need to do because they are at a different point in their lives.

I also have to admit you are much more familiar with the details of the Frankenprank than I am.

Why did Franken use Harvard stationery in the first place?

Were the young folks first contacted through letters written on Harvard stationery?
