That is one of my few badges of honour: I am amongst those Miss Baldy Eden hates!

My subscribers? I thought nouns in singular did not take "s". If there really are several, they must all be from his family. Although they probably disowned him if they have any sense left.

I note that he did not write "friends" but "readers and subscribers". We are probably not worthy being his "friends". Which really deeply saddens me. He would have been my first friend living in a trailer.

Mr. Eden: you are an intellectual midget.
