I am sure that he has responded to one or two of his threads that post his articles. I don't remember ever seeing a one. And this is not the first, second, or third time that I have commented about his lack of replies to concerns people raise about his articles.
No, I don't think that he is doing it for the money. I do think he is doing it for the increase in readership, to encourage folks to click the link and go to his articles. There is nothing wrong with that. My point all along has been that, if he is going to post his articles in an interactive forum, he ought to routinely interact with users who comment on his articles. It is arrogant not to do so.
It is not arrogant to post articles and not address comments on it. Articles are presumed to be one-way conversations. It is arrogant to post those same words on an interactive forum and then ignore comments. It is like making pronouncements from on high, which we are expected to read and accept, our thoughts on the matter meaning nothing to him, while his ideas are supposed to be meaningful to us.
Well, until and unless he is willing to routinely interact with us about his articles, I won't read them; his thoughts mean nothing to me if he is not willing to discuss them.
So, Dave, what are your thoughts on this?
