I couldn't agree more. This list is refreshingly civil, a real rarity in my experience. It would be a shame if it descended to the level of, say, some of the Nabokov-Wilson letters :).

I apologize if I got a little carried away in my last post. As tempting as it is to lure into the Oxfordian camp great minds like Brian Boyd's (and the other brilliant scholars' here), from now on I'll limit my non-VN authorship talk to private correspondence.

Cheers,

Brian Tomba

Just a reminder in advance, in case this debate has legs: on this list, we should limit the discussion to evidence of what Nabokov believed (preferably not [much] speculation on that) or appears to have believed, and NOT the various pro- and anti- Stratfordian theories and their merits/flaws.  And since this is a sometimes incendiary issue, extra care in maintaining civility is a must.
