Careful reading of my text will reveal that I was referring to Anglo-Catholics, not Roman Catholics, so unless you have hopped the Tiber and gone off on the Canterbury trail since last we spoke, you are safe from my ire.

I'm presently dining alone outdoors at 10 p.m. at a sidewalk cafe in Stuttgart, Germany. It's an extraodinarily unfamiliar (and intriguingly unprecedented) circumstance for me. You have provided me with about the best proxy for dinnertime conversation I could have imagined. Mind you, I think you mistaken at points (there is nothing pseudo about my papism, nor am I aware of anything simpering, closeted, or homosexual in my constitution), but such are the nuances and controversies best hashed out over beer and pipes. (Though I imagine that, a liter into the weissebier, we'd soon forget the theology and devolve into dueling Eliot recitations, the likes -- and volume -- of which would clear the surrounding tables of any timid patrons. I have little to offer in interpretation of your dream, at least without further elucidation. Was the airship a dirigible, or were there propellers involved? Hear, hear, Alistair!
