In light of the recent discussion about Mark Twain and his disbelief in Shakespeare of Stratford's authorship of the plays, and that as evidence of Twain's lack of "deep thought," I was reading Freud today (Interpretation of Dreams), and right after a discussion of Hamlet, Freud has a footnote, dated 1930, saying he no longer believes in Shakespeare of Stratford's authorship. I'm not defending Twain's position, but pointing out that a few intellectual heavyweights shared his view. BTW, I keep falling asleep while reading Freud, having strange dreams, and scaring myself! Now off on a voyage in a drop of water...ring up the Superintendent of Dreams, please! ############## John Bird mailto:[log in to unmask] "I got a rude!
