OT: A tribute in verse to the late Mr. Harter

[prawnster]

I have been so moved by the death of Mr. Harter, that, inspired by his
selfsame dedication and contribution to the art of poesy, I am
overcome with verse:

Ode To A Troll
--------------------
I appre'nded the nuance of 'paque college text,
I penned countless theses 'pon abstruse subject.
Yet when hemmed by logic 'gainst which none can guard,
I cry out "Stop! Uncle!" by feigning the 'tard.

Dedicated to Mr. Harshman, TO's most notorious troll.

[pnyikos]

Lest there be any misunderstanding: prawnster's ditty is meant to be
coming from Harshman himself. And I can personally vouch for his
continually living up to it. I called attention to one example in:

He then employed another one of his favorite ways of crying out "Stop!
Uncle!":

"But it contains nothing that needs a reply."

In my reply, I snipped that crying out but left the rest of what he
posted in:

And here I've snipped a paraphrasal of "I, John Harshman, can dish it
out, but I can't take it."
