Rather Amusing

Fellow LASFS member Eugene Volokh writes:

"A word of encouragement":After posting my words of encouragement, I opened up my First Amendment textbook to look at today's materials. They are on false statements of fact, and I included an epigraph — coincidentally called A Word of Encouragement, by J.R. Pope. It reads (in one of the several forms that I've seen): Oh, what a tangled web we weave When first we practice to deceive But when we've practiced quite a while How vastly we impove our style.
For obvious reasons, of course, this has nothing to do with the alleged forgeries, but I thought it was amusing enough to pass along in any event.

Of course, that's precisely what some folks are worried about.
