You have sent me an e-letter saying you do not agree with something I wrote.

I don't know you. I don't know your background. I don't know how much you have studied the topic. Yet you say I'm all wrong.

Your letter had offered only your opinion. It did not refer me to several detailed studies that prove me wrong.

You included no link to any article you have written on this. Maybe this was an oversight. If your opinion is posted on your website or blog, please send me a link to it. This would indicate that you are willing to go public with your opinion on this topic.

I do not understand why strangers send me objections like yours, but they do. Because no author is likely to change his mind based on a brief letter from an an unpublished stranger, it seems that writing such letters is a waste of time. Your time would be better spent editing a blog on a topic you know something about. I recommend it.
