A rather funny side-note to the main discussion occurred to me whilst reading this thread, which I shall forthwith mention. I pray Davem not to take offence...
For Davem it concerns. The thought occurred to me, reading the idea herein that "Preachiness is Englishness" that Davem, one of the most "English" of 'Downers from my point of view, certainly fits this narrow vision of what is English. For, from my point of view, Davem's mode of posting is rather... preachy.
Okay, you may now return to Edwardian England and the Tolkien therein.
