My little informal poll on Friday looked like the sort of election Fidel Castro would love – the Ayes got over 97 percent of the vote, including nearly as many emails as there were remarks in the comments stream. So I guess that answers that.
I should note, since a couple of people drew the wrong conclusion, that there’s no fixed correlation between what I eventually review and the Recently Received list other than that I don’t see the point of putting something on the list if I’ve just actually reviewed it. I decide what I’m going to write about based on whatever I’m thinking about, pondering, at the time. The Gil Ott book I reviewed last Monday is 11 years old. It can take awhile.
