Hi Louigi,

I'm glad you can take a good attitude towards the issue. People can get
pretty hot about topics to which they have a deep attachment.

Btw, I think it was Drew who made the comment re: your article. Again I
think scale matters. If I took your article and sold a hundred copies at
10 cents each you probably wouldn't get too excited. You might think
differently if I sold 100,000 at $1 each.

Best,

dp
