Mark,

Who said ANYTHING about trying to stifle the
voice of the reviewer or starting a "letter writing campaign?"
I suggested that the response to the reviewer was
very well written and made some good points about
puppetry and vents, and that it deserved to be
sent to the editor so that perhaps it could be
printed in the paper to allow that point of view to be aired.

Period.
