Ah, if I had seen Rob's post, I probably wouldn't have mentioned the
whole inspirational thing in my review.  At the same time, the whole my
thoughts on Rob's thoughts on the genre thing was the review.  So there
you go.

And I want to say that I, for one, found your soapbox to be very
compelling.  Of course, I share many of those opinions also, but you
expressed them with such simplicity and force that I feel it should be
commended.

Thank you very kindly, Rob.
