I was very disappointed in the tone and content of your paper’s recent editorial and article on this topic (GLT 8/17/06.) Given my track record, I had expected to receive the benefit of the doubt from a community publication like yours, especially since, given the legal nature of the situation, I am not in a position to directly respond. I am content, however, to let my reputation speak for itself with the community for now.
