AKMA's Random Thoughts

Blast From the Past

David and Jeneane’s discussion of authenticity brings me back to olden times. I won’t go back to all the links, but I found one two-year-old nexus from which branches reach out in familiar directions. As if to respond afore to a stimulus that hadn’t yet arrived, even Dave (c & E) Rogers has blogged several times this year. Back then, of course, we blogged ten miles a day in our bare feet, uphill both directions, even when it snowed. . . .

Someone even came up with Authenticity Premises if I recall correctly ...

I had the same nostalgic reaction. Seeing that fresh authenticity discussion took me back to the good old days.

I've been resisting diving in between David W and Jeneane because I know it would eat up an hour or two--those two require a full quiver of quips--and I just don't have the timespace right now.

How in the world did I find so much time to blog back in those olden days?

For the modernist English students among us a discussion of authenticity and voice will always be grist for a good discussion.
