I'm saying that those sites know what a <i>fine piece of writing</i> looks like. Storm Front had Sheehan's piece as lead article in its "Library" section for at least 12 years. Yes I checked.<br /><br />It's sad that the Fairfax press gives Sheehan such a prominent position in its otherwise decent publications, but at least we can remind people of the author's body of work.
