[Horace Jeffery Hodges]

Horace Jeffery Hodges wrote:

  
"There must still be a lot of students who struggle financially and are driven by a budget rather than greed."
   
   
  Carrol Cox commented:
   
  
"Don't even make this comparison. Greed (decently defined) consists in accumulating more money (from the work of others) than one would need for personal expenses. If you want to talk in ethical terms (though I think it rather unintelligent to do so in this contex), then the student who buys the cheapest text available is practicing the virtue of prudence."

  
Well, Carrol, my words were chosen to express polite disagreement with Roy Flannagan, but thanks all the same for the lessons on vice, virtue, intelligence, and the subtle art of gracious opposition.
