Gould,
I hate to tell you this, but you are the one uniformed. The question is why
are you so upset if your publisher asked you to write a "fluff" article

My publisher seldom asks me to write anything. I have full editorial
discretion.
That's a concept you probably wouldn't understand, as all you can seem to write
are snide personal remarks about other people.

Why don't you get back over to the OT political threads where you belong, and
stop trying to pick fights and start personal arguments in an on-topic thread?

You want to bitch about my personal or political philosophies, fine. Do it
where it's appropriate. Trying to hijack a thread into a personal squabble is
*exactly* what your very favorite participant in the NG is famous for. Is part
of your fixation on that person a burning desire to emulate his behavior?

It sounded like all
of the "reviews" in boating magazines.


It wasn't a product review, it was an informational interview and represented
as such.

I'd think a guy who claims to be an expert
on writing and publishing, as well as a mind-reader, would know the difference.
