    The L.A. Times' restaurant critic was identified, photographed, and
    asked to leave from a new restaurant, which then posted her picture on
    a website. Here's the Times response to the incident, an explanation
    of their reviewing policy.

    The paper also has a column by her today about the restaurant scene in
    L.A. in 2010, as it happens. -aem

    I would prefer not to call it a lie, but I would suggest that you go
    back and read the original cite. She made the reservation, and not in
    her own name.


    Good point, although I suspect he is using his real name.

    Pretentiousness is the best way to get a booger, and worse, in your

    it's because she just swizzled your drink with the finger she used to
    swizzle her slit.

    And yet, there's something psychological about not getting the most.
    Some people think "adequate" means "lacking."



    And Margaret says that anything less than 3-1/2 or 4 stars by a NY Times
    reviewer is death to a NYC restaurant, even though 3 stars means
    "excellent".

    Depends on context. In some institutions and communities,
    it is customary to address to anyone with a doctorate as "Doctor".
    This was true when I was at Caltech, and I suspect it was
    true in U.K. society in general until perhaps 1960.

    But it's no longer true presently, in general, probably because there
    have been so many Ph.D's churned out in the last couple decades
    that it's become less meaningful.

    Now, if you want to argue the entire academic community is
    filled with assholes anyway .... :-)
