Dear Mr. Bing:

I was pleased to see a reply to my poem "No Choice" coming from the net.

Yet, with all due respect for the reader and a genuine interest in
criticism, I found your remarks, such as "[a line] deleted for the sake 
of sanity" and "is this guy for real", not constructive at all.  

I almost resent the way you dispose of the work that took me two weeks of
composing and many years of observation.  I would rather appreciate a reply
containing an earnest discussion of content with helpful suggestions for the
improvement of style.

Sincerely,

Alex Sherstinsky 

P. S.:	I posted this reply to the net because the mail kept bouncing back
	when I tried to use the mail's "R" command.  Any flames caused by the
	presence of this article on the net are not intentional.
