Hi, Pallisard,

I certainly appreciate your compliment, but please don't send my critique to Barron's.

My ad hominen ridicule of the author was pure self-indulgence, and at best would be considered cranky by the Barron's editors. I would never include such a thing in a more "public" forum. It would be needlessly rude, and it would seriously distract the reader from the substance of the criticism. Ad hominen attacks are fun for the writer, but rarely advance any larger purpose.

Also, I think a proper letter to Barron's should concentrate on providing new information that would supplement and clarify that contained in the article. My critique did not offer anything new. It focused entirely on some of the ambiguities within the author's interpretations of his material. I think they will be apparent to most readers interested enough in the subject to spend some time reflecting on its contents.

Regards, lws
