Thank you for posting this, Dr. DeMeo. This article does exactly what
you intended- it addresses the specific charges made by Carlinsky in a
rational, objective manner. To my eyes, you have addressed the specific
charges raised by Calinksy and answered in a compelling and
understandable way. This was all that I (and others, I think, who were
calling for an end to the name-calling nonsense) asked for. I don't
think that we should be criticized for that request. It was a
perfectly reasonable one.
The event-based reporting on Carlinsky's behavior is germane to this
discussion, as it places it in a larger context. It also avoided the
name-calling and abusive language that has been proliferating here. The
fact that this article comes from a history of harassment and
threatening letters is certainly relevant.
So, thank you for taking the time to post such a thorough response. I,
for one, have had my questions answered.
Sincerely,
Chris Caruso
