Did you really have to sow salt in the fields? Well, maybe not. It’s not like I want it to die. I just want it to fade into insignificance. Not the literal Carthage, of course, which is already long gone and replaced with another city, but my metaphorical, personal Carthage. We all have one, or several. And I want mine to go away and never bother me again. All the Carthage-sympathizers around here need to realize that they’re either with us or against us, and that Carthage is not us.
