Editor’s note 9/10/20

A friend took serious exception to what I wrote in this space last week. “Do you even think much about what you write?” she asked me. I see your point, I said. I’ll try to think more. “At least it’s short,” she said, “so maybe not many read it.” Maybe some people read it because it’s short, I said. “Oh I hope not,” she said. “But I see your point. I read it.” –Fletcher Farrar, editor and CEO
