 One of my favourite professors, Ian Geddalof (sp?) from the English
Department of the University of Western Ontario (a friend of my
father's) declared himself a Fuddian: he followed the teachings of
Elmer Fudd.  He reasons that they were at least as coherent as
Foucault and Derrida.  He used to prowl the halls of University
College, telling any who'd listen, "Be vewy, vewy qwiet: I'm hunting
theowists".
