WOOOO! how big of a collective fourth estate pussy do you have to be to get pwned by the new york review of books? anyway, out of shame for being so wrong, The Amazing Mentallo (my penis) hereby retires, renounces any claim to precognitave powers, and returns to being El Santo, Masked Wrestling Avenger.
