Agree, David.

It's sad to have to moderate everything, but I've done it on my blog from the start, otherwise I get a stream of spam advertisements about handbags, songs and get-rich-quick schemes.

Until this James added the second, derogatory paragraph about your books (which is untrue - I love Nic Costa's world), his opinion was valid. Yes, it ran against the other ones, but that's what free speech is about - disagreement.

Bit like the programme - a lost opportunity.
