		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been writing a lot lately about the trouble with commitments to being nice or caring (Virtue Verbiage; Conventional Wisdom) and have gotten interesting feedback on these columns. A few said these were especially useful. One particularly liked that I said people should be nice, which wasn&#8217;t my point. Several doubted my claim that people [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m trying a new way to deal with effronteries. When someone does me harm, I have an old habit of compensating myself with the grant of retaliatory superiority. I automatically think, &#8220;This proves that I&#8217;m different from (and better than) them.
