Hmmm. Scarlet, although I wholeheartedly agree on points 1-6, I am trying to think how much your department would have to pay me to maintain a scholarly identity so spectacular that I would consider faking my own death to get out from under it. In other words, there are some things about the "lifestyle" that I don't always consider benefits. Oh, here. I can capture a piece of it by misqoting you. Some days, I am "willing to stand at cocktail parties." And some days I am not.
