Anyway, I would certainly agree to Geoff Notkin, who wrote: "even the edited version helps get the point across", regarding Daryll Pitt´s letter to the NYT. Thanks, Daryll!
This is important! You most certainly can´t circumvent or obviate editing, but it is good to have a good argument made available to the public, who can then put it into some more subtle perspective for themselves.
Anne has done a very sophisticated job with her rebuttal, but don´t expect to have that printed by the NYT. This great rebuttal will take effect in a more profound sense elsewhere, I´m sure.
Best,
