Of course, this is a fiction writing list.

What a charmlingly veiled way of calling anyone who disagrees with you a 
liar.

Does anyone smell burning flesh?

Instead please ask others who know my culture so much better such as John 
Wlater Biles who is so knowledgeble in Japanese law, language and culture 
that he knows more that the natives of that land.

I have never claimed to know anything useful about Japanese language, as 
far too many people can tell you.  

yeah, in fact, while i'm here, do you remember that "Bailesu" thing you
had going a little while ago?  Your name is pronounced "Bi-yulls" right?
well, "bailesu" would "bi-layse".
