Eva sent it directly to me via e-mail to make sure that I was properly perturbed! I want y'all to know that I laughed a lot. I am now in the process of writing a Yankee version.
I also told Eva that she can come out of hiding in the ditch; we're still friends. She's just an innocent European. Besides, anyone as knowledgeable about American history and anyone who writes as expertly as she, you just can't stay mad at.
