WHAT'S THIS?
You'd be surprised - there's at least one strange request per week, from all over the world, and I don't have time to answer them all. So here's a FAQ:
- No, I am not Jacques Derrida.
- No, I am not Derrida's ghostwriter either.
- No, I cannot send you this or that book of his, or copy pages for you.
- No, he does not do email.
- No, I cannot help you write a term paper.
- No, I cannot help you find this quote before the deadline.
- No, I cannot guarantee Derrida will attend your conference.
- No, I cannot give out his address/phone/fax.
- No, Derrida will not review/sign/quote/buy your book/essay/picture...
- No, I don't know any good Derrida jokes.
- No, I will not post your writings on this site.
- No, I am not paid by anyone for this site.

That's it folks - one day, when I sort out the options for putting out a site from my over 20 megabytes of email about this site, I will have a lot of fun documenting the sad, funny, stupid, and just plain weird things I keep getting... So if anyone has a solution for this (preferably something simpler than building a bespoke python script mind you) I am listening! |
