Comment:        Re: SHK 14.1678 Words, words, words - Hamlet II.2

Sam Small writes, "Very amusing, Thomas.  Actually all the apparent
inconsistencies can be explained in English."

Indeed, amusing and English, but not Shakespeare.  Does anyone really
know if Hamlet was trying to be amusing when he dissed his Mom?
