Sondheim is full of shit, a sickening poetaster.  He should go fuck himself.  
If he doesn't apologize to Salvaggio I'll do my best to satirize and 
discredit his creative writings.  How?  Because I am the best american writer 
in history.  You might think that your writing is more learned, more honed, 
and more sculptural than mine but you are mistaken.  I challenge you to 
discuss Genius 2000 anywhere, anytime, with anyone or on any medium.  If you 
decline this challenge I will consider you a dishonorable man and shun you.
