Where the author's name is hyperlinked, the link goes to more IBIC comments about the author. That's not an argument that IBIC cares to enter. He is probably the most important journalist of the 20th Century. Behead me, if it is better for you that way. You will do your part, and I mine.

Faithful IBIC readers will know that my sympathies lie entirely with Hugo.
