Thank you for clarifying the context for your questions. The reality is
that you have no relevant experience to call my behavior as a magazine
editor into question. All I can suggest is that if you are that unhappy
with how I perform my job, you should stop subscribing to Stereophile.

Yet you repeatedly questioned my authority to make the editorial decisions
with which you disagreed. I offered you an explanation in response to
your questioning but now you say you are _not_ interested?

>You have not answered a question posted to you THREE times...will you be

As no-one else has approached me, nor is there any way of my knowing if
such a letter would be newsworthy or not, your question cannot be answered
other than by saying "it depends."
