Re: Thursday, October 17, 2002
I think Andrew is out of line, not because he criticizes Beth and her writing, we're all open game for that, but because of the elitist way he ended the column: "Of course, you'll argue: we're just being mean. Online journals give a billion people who can't write and who have nothing to say the means to publish. It's good! To which I reply: here's a mechanism which allows a billion people who can't sing, can't write a song or make an original beep, and have nothing to express, the means to deafen me with their tuneless, boring cacophony. Get a producer!" That reeks of Big J elitism to me and my response is pretty much, if you don't like it don't read it Andrew!
