* I did not deride Ray for asserting his copyright. Like any good
businessman he is simply protecting his property legally and justified in
doing so. I understand this and gave my undertaking to abide by it. I
have a lot of respect for Ray, who always been civil in his dealings with
me and who has always been honest in his motives. I was referring not
specifically to Ray but generally to the wider climate of
commercialisation which I cannot change.
Without impugning Ray, I sought to make the general observation
that the 'truth' is inevitably made more difficult to find and
independently verify when the subjects under discussion and 'key players'
are under someone (anyone)'s control. I can't see how private ownership
of pieces of the jigsaw, any jigsaw, helps the rest of us get the
picture.
