The Article I Decided Not To Write

[9thdoctor]

I hereby designate this designate this maneuver "The Hardin".

Now this is getting a bit thick. Besides, anyone familiar with Isaac Asimov’s Foundation knows the epigrams of Salvor Hardin:

An atomic blaster is a good weapon, but it can point both ways.

Never let your sense of morals prevent you from doing what is right.

It pays to be obvious, especially if you have a reputation for subtlety.

Violence is the last refuge of the incompetent.

Perhaps Dennis can adapt one of these to his own uses, I suggest:

Flaming is the last refuge of the inarticulate.

Mmm, err, not quite, but not my job.
