The lack of any apparent relevance of this garish and frivolous title to an otherwise serious and intelligent review would seem to support Steve’s supposition. It’s hard to imagine that Mr. Nemser would write such a careful piece then excrete such a stinker of a title onto it. If this is an editor’s title, it is Mr. Nemser who has the most cause to protest.

Victor, The title may not have been Nemser's. The titles of articles in magazines and newspapers are often by an editor, not by the auther of the article. Steve Diedrich
