	I do not see why people get so upset when critics say what is good
and what is bad, what should be read and what should not. The only critic I
have ever found who knows what I like and don't like is me. I have not read
any of those "WHAT'S WRONG WITH SCIENCE FICTION" since Part II (I wasn't on
the net for part one) and if you disagree with what the writer writes, don't
read it.
	As for whether a story is ART or a GOOD READ, WHO CARES? If you like
it, good, you have just enjoyed a fine story. If you don't, you don't. I wish
people would stop taking what "critics" think so seriously.
