Couple of problems with that.  I didn't listen, but first, it's too
bad that Bruce Arnold would be put in such a situation like that.  Not
up to his classy standards, IMO.  Secondly, it's always been "Maurice"
Cohen, even by his detractors.  The "Moe" thing takes disrespect to a
stupid level.

others miss the point, it would seem.
