...The One-Minute Pundit

In a post in Aramvirumque Stefan Beck writes of Harry "Synergy" Potter:

I think it’s reasonable to suggest that adults spend their reading time, a limited and thus very precious resource, on better books. If that’s wishful thinking, can’t they at least pick better books to obsess about?

And he links to an article from 2000 by Harold Bloom, who writes:

A vast concourse of inadequate works, for adults and for children, crams the dustbins of the ages.

This is one of the many reasons I get excited over ARM-WAVING ENTHUSIASTS.
