Just thought you might like to know: Achenbach writes about serious matters using a light humorous tone to slip by readers' defenses with weighty issues that some readers are prejudiced against listening to. Almost every point that you sputteringly cite in your enraged diatribe is, in fact, a clear example of intentional humorous hyperbole. Perhaps you are responding humorously, in kind. If so, I'm afraid I didn't get it. A friend brought up your commentary on Achenbach’s Achenblog today.
