I enjoy his writing immensely, however the ONE thing that I can not most
stand about him (and his writing) is that he spells Aesthetics, Esthetics.
This coupled with his notoriously "talky style" in using common language
like he was talking to you over a cup of coffee instead of the MORE
appropriate way of using the most convoluted and confusing verbiage
to completely obscure any hope of ever seeing teh terra del firma again
one begins to feel (as is the PROPER way) lost in a miasma of interlocutory
circumlocution (locquatiously speaking, quid-pro-quo).

So, instead hi s wors are notoriously easy to understand; despite a tendency
to insert adverbs prior to a comparative clause; viz, "[McLuhan's] similarly
improvised perceptions were sociologically more substatntial.
(I realise that this must be due to the fact frankly more likely than not his
name (Kostelanetz) has only one 'a' in it, and far too many 'e's. ;)
Enjoy the writing of one Hoopy Frood (I flip my towel in the general
direction of the reference stacks)
