...think people reacted so strongly? Well, one thing about my column that I think jumped out at people is that there's not too much humor in the Modern Love column, typically, and there's not too much humor in The New York Times.

The document includes no outright condemnation of Colombia, as Correa and Chavez had demanded, but it calls Colombia's cross-border incursion a violation...
