I was taken with Dodd since his page includes his iPod playlists on the "Dodd Podd"--songs from Ben Lee, the Silversun Pickups, Arcade Fire. Who doesn't like a friend who turns them on to new music?

...think," Mr. Tilden added, "that you've all forgotten how to laugh in New York!" Perhaps we only snicker and snigger. Who knows? At any rate, whatever may be our pet noise which denotes amusement, we shall probably bring it forth when we encounter Mr. Tilden's Mr. Podd, unless, perhaps, we are members of "the lunatic fringe...
