Perhaps I overreacted (as my mail seems to be telling me), but the posting of a warning concerning each book I write (he's done this before) before this fellow reads the new book seemed to me to be a bit mean-spirited. If it was offered as a helpful hint, then I'm sorry, Ken. I just wish you would communicate your feelings about my __new__ book both to me (you have never spoken or sent E-mail to me personally) and the net after you have looked at it.
