I have this evil mental picture Written by Jean B (5/10/2007 1:31 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, Where could Mr. C have heard of the Bennet..., penned by Adrian

of Mr. Collins asking anyone and everyone about the ladies of Longbourne to make sure they were attractive before coming to marry one of them. Do you think he is that forward thinking or am I giving him credit for forethought he doesn't have?
