Unless I note otherwise, situations, pseudonymous people and professional dilemmas described here are fictional. Uncivil or mean-spirited comments toward me or anyone else will be deleted, as will advertisements for products or services disguising themselves as comments.

And it is a rather flattering and full quote, too! Bravo!
Awesomeness, great paragraph too. Congratulations on a milestone!
Everyone thinks that is cool, even if they pretend that they don't. Felicitations!
Well, I am jealous. Not even Mad Magazine quotes me.
It is the FUCKING Nyorker.
Good job.

Congrats! It is the outward-facing historian's dream...
Well done. I'm glad she quoted you at your most pointed and polemical, and that she let you have the last word.
