More Debate:

"There are very good political reasons . . . [as above]

"Adyar and Wheaton . . ." [as above]

This is a serious charge and one must assume you direct it 
specifically at Dr. John Algeo, the editor of the volume.

I would point out that both John Cooper and Boris de Zirkoff wanted 
the "Solovyoff" letters (mentioned by the 3 readers) published. Dara 
Eklund can confirm this about BdZ.

And John Cooper published these "Solovyoff" letters as well as 
Letter No 7 as part of his dissertation and as part of the 
manuscript he sent to Wheaton. Gregory Tillett can verify for you my 
statement about Cooper's dissertation.

Therefore if you want to ascribe base/negative motives to John Algeo 
and Wheaton/Adyar in this matter, then in fairness one could ascribe 
the SAME motivation to both de Zirkoff and Cooper.

Do you believe John Cooper included these letters for the same 
reason you give for Dr. Algeo including them?

As I said this is a serious matter and I would like to know your 
thinking on the above facts that I have given you.

I hope that you will seriously reconsider this matter, retract those 
statements and offer a public apology.
