EDNOTE. In view of the spirited postings on Michael Maar's controversial
hypothesis, I take the opportunity to rerun his message of April 5 and
invite his response.
As a personal aside, I would remark that MM is more sinned against than
sinning. His article was, it seems to me, openly speculative. It was not he,
but many less responsible journalists who jumped in with the ugly (and
idiotic) plagiarism business. ...
I close by noting that very few people have actually had the opportunity to read the von Lichberg story.
Dear Don,
Thank you for a judicious ednote. I particularly note your last point, that we have not had an opportunity to read the story in question, is particularly apropos and that the next step is an obvious one. The story should be made available and an English translation provided. Judgement should be reserved on all sides until this is done.
Carolyn
