In Defence of Manuel Caldas' Honor


Brian M. Kane posted the above comment on José Villarubia's twitter account. I replied as you can also read above. Why am I posting this here? Because posts on twitter, or, as they are commonly known, twits, are quite efemeral, being rapidly replaced in the readers' atention. Is this atempt less efemeral or will I reach more people? I somehow doubt it, but you can't blame me for trying...

On the other hand, maybe thinking the matter forgotten and buried there was no answer. Maybe the fact that the straw man doesn't hold on his tiny clay feet had something to do with that too.
