Quoted in The Straight Dope

After years (decades, been reading him since 1987) of reading Cecil Adam’s article “The Straight Dope,” and writing in to him several times, I was finally quoted in an article of his.

That’s the link to Friday’s article in which he quoted me. I had responded to an article of his on his website, and he excerpted me.
