Haha that's awesome. You know I've never been bothered by the man, until he wrote that silly book on Greek myth, though I know most Alexander historians tend to react negatively. He seems an affable chap often to be seen in the library here and the people I know whom he have tutored all speak highly of him, which is something in itself.
P.S whilst we're on Alexander the Great what do you think of Hammond? I liked his stuff on military side of things though I find the way he and Hatzopoulos infer massive amounts of Macedonian state machinery from later Roman authors absolutely terrifying.
Also, how about a new tactic? Alexander the Great never died, instead he became immortal and sits in a nuclear bunker somewhere deep in the Gedrosian dessert controlling us all like puppets.
