and an anti-Semite to boot Written by Kresel (4/6/2003 3:05 p.m.) in consequence of the missive, GR: John Thorpe - GRRRRR!!, penned by Cheryl

But of course, that wasn't so unusual back then. What impresses me is that JA gave the anti-Semitic slur to such a hateful character. You don't see that very much in English literature, mostly Jewish caricatures.
