Dear TOTALLY D. GREEN

Why not address the numerical aspect, and Subba Row's comments?
They were offered with genuine concern.
Hebrew letters have numerical equivalents. This is fairly well known.
Subba Row is saying the same in regard to another language.  
Does it in your view apply to all languages?
It may be very difficult to begin to understand, but why fob something off,
which we can't understand (?), with a personal attack, and by repeating:

>THERE ARE NO MISTAKES!!
>THERE ARE NO MISTAKES!!
>THERE ARE NO MISTAKES!!
>THERE ARE NO MISTAKES!!
>THERE ARE NO MISTAKES!!
>THERE ARE NO MISTAKES!!
>THERE ARE NO MISTAKES!!
>THERE ARE NO MISTAKES!!
>
>NONE, NO NONE, NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVE NEVER NEVER.
