Monica Davey, in the New York Times, writes about the BTK killer. I was astounded by the implied theme of the article that an "ordinary life" lived "intensely" was somehow the basis for BTK's homicidal activities. He was too good to be true and so it was that he was not good at all. What crap.

This article is in the same vein as the one in the NYT Magazine a couple of years back about Eve Ensler and her Vagina Monologues. All form and no substance. I keep asking myself how people can consider the NYT and its readers much above the National Inquirer and all those inquiring minds.
