Louis: Are we are on the verge of some major breakups of the old
ideological alignment on Spoons? Malecki in a block (bloc, bloque?) with
Henwood against Proyect on black nationalism?

And what a stunning achievement on the part of the Buffaloes. They have
inspired a united front against pretension and obnoxious sophomoric
behavior that includes so far: Rodwell, Proyect, Malecki, Yoshie, Philion,
Sprouse, Henwood, McLemee, Rosser and Levy.

Aren't the sociology department Bolsheviks doing something nobody thought
possible? They are uniting the left. Congratulations, boys. Lenin couldn't
have done it better.
