Safire Watch (continued)

[Bapopik at AOL.COM]

    If anyone (such as Fred or Jerry) wants to see this end, it's really very simple.  Write to Elizabeth Phillips, William's Safire's assistant who came on this list.  She won't ever grace me with even a response, but perhaps any one of you can get lucky.  The address she last used is phille at nytimes.com.
   Ask her:

1.  WHY WON'T YOU JOIN THE AMERICAN DIALECT SOCIETY FOR FREE, OR EVEN RESPOND TO THE OFFER?

2.  WHY WON'T YOU CORRECT PRINTED ERRORS IN BARRY POPIK'S WORK, AND WHY HAS NO ONE EVEN RESPONDED TO HIM IN THE PAST FOUR MONTHS?

   Again, maybe any one of you will be more successful.
