Nor should this have to be said: If an idea is legitimately worth
publication, and widespread recognition - it will be read and passed on to
others. If it is a legitimate topic or concept - it will be recognized as
such, and that decision to hold it in high regard will be made by a
collective readership - not because the author told us to do so. (Regardless
of the readership's response - you only risk further alienation by berating
them.)

The author must make a decision about his text, if he feels it is worthy to
move on and try it another forum, or let it fall the way of many other
well-intentioned, but alas less-than-engaging texts.

best regards,

Kevin Smith
