The article addresses this too, and I feel like I'm not having an argument in good faith, so I'm going to respectfully bow out.


The article recognizes it, which I should have pointed out (on phone), but as far as addressing it there is only this line:

> Except in all his later writings, he has relentlessly refused to pay attention to those increases.

No examples are given. The next claim about moving the goalposts also is unsubstantiated. It might be true but I don't see where Hickle had ever moved the goalpost from $7.40.

I don't have a dog in this race. If you feel like I am somehow mistaken then please point it out, preferably without attacking my character. Of course you are under no obligation.
