Well, perhaps it was, but then what is your paragraph above?  I don't
like things that have been happening to the AERC under Doyle's
management, that's true.

Speaking of the "letters" section, last spring Doyle printed a portion
of one of my Ridecamp posts *without my permission* -- setting up (by
the editing) a straw man for someone supporting Doyle's position to
attack.  When I called and complained, Doyle claimed that he had a
right to print any part of my Ridecamp post he wanted to, whether I
liked it or not.  He then did *not* print my response to the attack on
my post.  Is that the kind of person you want publishing Endurance
News?  I don't.
