Quote:It may have been a tactical error, but I believe it was intentional on the part of the Author - after all, Doug's rather annoyed at the sabers and isn't thinking "let's play nice". He's more thinking "I'm right, you're wrong, and I'm gonna make you see things my way"...
Lastly, I think that (assuming that the song is available to Doug) he may have made a tactical error in using "Under My Thumb" in Chapter 11. Instead, I think that he should have used "We Can Work It Out" by the Beatles. It's not as forceful, but it could permit for an area effect.
In this case the "error" is really just a difference in approach. Seeing things externally gives us a persoective that Doug doesn't have - one of the things that makes DW such a good read...
