Re: STC Letter to the Editor
Well, now. I will do Bruce the courtesy of responding to what he actually wrote.
[snip]
Fix: To influence the outcome or actions of by improper or unlawful means: fix a prizefight; fix a jury. [American Heritage Dictionary] As I wrote, Bruce effectively says our various publications competitions are fixed.
No sooner do you promise to respond to what I actually say than you immediately put words into my mouth. While you might have reasonably misconstrued my first comments, by now it should be very clear that I do not suggest any deliberate fraud.
Obviously, you are determined to take my general comments as a personal insult, even when I state that they were not meant as such.
I'm sorry you feel that way. However, I know better than to try to argue with someone in that frame of mind.
Blaze away at me all you like; this is the last response you'll get from me on the subject.

A waltz on All Souls Night. "
