Happy Anniversary! Congratulations and thanks.
Posted by Angelo at July 31, 2008 09:15 AMI was wondering what the great Robert Irwin, American artist, was doing writing about Antwerp in the TLS, but it's apparently someone else. Congratulations on the sixty years of blogs. Now if you had become an academic (or a psychoanalyst, or were unemployed for that matter) you wouldn't have to work in the sunny months. Unemployment has the shortest retraining.

Posted by Ben Zimmer at July 31, 2008 10:14 AMMuch of what you write about goes over my head, without ever making me feel excluded. Thank you.

Posted by Martin at July 31, 2008 05:43 PMD'Oh! I swapped pronouns halfway through. That's what I get for suddenly deciding to neuter your blog.
Undskyld ...
Posted by Sili at July 31, 2008 06:22 PMCongratulations on 6 years. I've only been reading your blog for half that long, but I have enjoyed every post, and while I agree with zhoen's words, "Much of what you write about goes over my head, without ever making me feel excluded." I have to add that your enthusiasm and ability to involve the amateurs, dilettantes and dabblers has meant that now a tiny fraction less goes whizzing over my head and that is a great feeling. Kia ora!
Posted by Stuart at July 31, 2008 07:18 PMBest blog (and comment section) on the internet, if you ask me.

Posted by language hat at July 31, 2008 07:50 PMMany thanks for what you've done, and many wishes for many more.
And here's a present: proof that Chaucer spoke Yiddish.

Congratulations!
