| Some of my friends are foilists. They're not GOOD friends, of course. More like "associates" or "people I see across the room sometimes and avoid in public." But they're decent enough folk. Mostly. When they bathe.
There's your bumper sticker advocacy: "Foilists -- They Don't Totally Suck." It's a first step in improving relations. | |

Unlike epee, for which all one needs is a course of antibiotics.
