More Controversy - Coda

I received this follow-up email from John Thompson just after his first salvo:

On second thought [how embarrassing] seeing as how you didn't write the review, please disregard what I wrote, and do not prejudge me for my apparent inability to read a newspaper.

Apologies, JTT

I told John not to worry about it, although I hope that if he ever reads an incredibly insightful, flattering, well-written review that isn't by me, he might think it is anyway. I reckon I could live with that.
