Hi, Gunars-- I have read your post, and Woody's response, and your counter comment, and I am having trouble understanding where you are coming from, and where you are going with this.

I think you still have the stick in the hornet's next, or somewhere else......

I would certainly think twice before reciewing a book for a source such as Amizon. Although not recently, I have written book reviews for professional sources such as Asha magazine. And I am proud that something I wrote was selected to be printed on the back jacket of Marty Jeser's autobiographical book on stuttering. But I would be concerned that writing for a "profit" company like Amazon might be a form of commercialism.

I'll not tempt any further the stick that might be near the hornet's next.
