Somehow I think the two of you are talking about two different brownies.

Not necessarily. After all, a brownie is a brownie is a brownie.

Aren't Brownies what girls are when they're too young to be Girl Scouts?









How did a James Joyce thread get turned into a thread about Brownies and child molesters?

There actually is a child molester in Dubliners (maybe two, depending on how you define molester.) No Brownies that I can recall though. Unless you want to count Joyce's love letters to his wife, and I don't think we want to go there.
