Some press representatives with whom I talked with agreed that the apparent purpose of this message - beyond the concern of real overreaction - was to divert attention from the belatedness of interest on the part of government agencies and policymakers. ❋ Unknown (2011)
This belatedness renders much of what I might otherwise say redundant, since other, better critics have previously covered most of the things I would otherwise have said here: Dan 'Hart to Hart' Hartland, for instance a much more expert Holmesian than I gets it pretty much right, I think. ❋ Adam Roberts (2010)

Our Gentile problem arises not from our belatedness, but from our obnoxious propensity for showing up after the party has already begun, and plopping ourselves down in the seat reserved for the guests of honor. ❋ Unknown (2006)
What his handwringing amounts to is a refusal to recognize that in fact he has no "hedgerow envy": there is no detachment here, no belatedness at the scene of battle. ❋ Unknown (2006)
I recall a former colleague whose family was of the tradition that celebrated Christmas on January 6, so I feel perfectly find at spanning the whole TWELVE DAYS of CHRISTMAS with no points off for belatedness. ❋ Belinda (2008)
I am finally catching up with the rest of the knitosphere and assaying Clapotis for evidence of the internet knitter Clapotis obsession, and my belatedness, see here, here, and my favorite here. ❋ Becca (2007)
It will also be reflected in the belatedness, the total behind-the-times-ness of today's linkage, but oh well. ❋ A. Fortis (2007)
