Another Very Fair Review of My Book

Aren't you going to defend your use (or abuse) of italics?

Bryan, the graphic novel is coming along very well. When do you expect it to be completed?

Perhaps an economist can explain why no-one has ever made a handy sum by writing better stories and lyrics to combine with the wonderful operatic music that is so often accompanied by verbal bilge?

Bryan:

Your reviewer is indulging in ad hominem comments. Ad hominem comments are the last refuge of scoundrels, who - lacking the wit to argue substance - stoop to hurl personal abuse from the sewers.

This is a free country, and so everyone is entitled to his/her opinion, and - if so inclined - to make fools of themselves.

Brings to mind:
UN-altered REPRODUCTION and DISSEMINATION of this
IMPORTANT Information is ENCOURAGED, ESPECIALLY to COMPUTER
BULLETIN BOARDS.

P.S. I probably picked up the habit from Murray Rothbard, perhaps via a writing seminar I took in 1989 from Sheldon Richman.

No one's immune from irony I suppose.

I know an excellent operatic director who knows a number of excellent composers. Let me know when the libretto for The Myth of the Rational Wotan is ready.
