It is clear that Paul has begun to adapt and
utilize some aspects of my personal style.
My goal has been to point out various hypocrisy and
non-congruity in thinking. I am not quite sure about
Paul's exact goals, but given that imitation is said to
be a highly sincere form of flattery, I find it difficult
to find a good reason to be unhappy about it.
