Hi Steve,

Thank you for your thoughts. I sometimes feel you may have been the chef guiding the witches in MacBeth, your writing stirs such a pot of toil and trouble. (without eye of newt and hair of toad obviously... they are hard to find at Walmart these days.) It engages and makes your sincere arguments spring to life in the reader's mind. A true talent. I don't aways agree, but you know from your engaging comments that your writing is respected. I began a response to this article but it grew to a ridiculous length, so I made it into a separate article and linked you to it. I hope you don't mind. Your article however, and the comments that followed, are the core of what makes vibrant engaging work. Chapeau. K
