Damn, David! You've made the man whole on a cellular I've never even thought about! I resent Clarence like an STD, my knee-jerk reaction to all of his bullshit. Don't get it twisted, I still think his ass is scum (I was" becoming" during the Anita Hill drama), but you've made me think about the monster "we" had a hand in creating.

Great piece, Brother -- that's what writing's about...
