        Mr. Nobody invented the facts he needed to ignore the ones   
   he didn't like too much.  (No wonder he's been quoting   
   Goebbels.)  More specifically, he manufactured the idea I mixed   
   up pain and suffering.  Not so.  I said the Sakalika Sutta   
   implies the Buddha suffered from pain by describing his ability   
   to _endure_ the unpleasantness instead of contending he   
   escaped its effects:  a point that Mr. Nobody completely failed   
   to address.
