i think that it's great that you backed up your opinions efficiently with quotes. They bring out your point exactly and i think that its great that you used them. And also i agree with you about how it can get confusing sometimes with some of the things he is talking about in the book. like weapons and stuff! i have no idea if they are talking about guns, planes, sushi, whatever! I think that he maybe could've made it a little easier for people like you and me to understand! but anyways great job on using those quotes! :-)

Liz,

First of all, I've also enjoyed your quotes that closely relate to each entry topic.

To see how extreme Ezra Pound's definition of "efficient writing" is, check out his poem "In a Station at the Metro"......... trust me, check it out!
