Hi, you may respect their right to be wrong, but speaking as a reader, I'd
prefer the books I read to be easy to read and tending to be more right.

Sue,
That's an excellent question. I wish there were an excellent answer. Director
of Operations Fred Slone and I just finished a 45 minute meeting in which this

part of the copyrighted work As somebody once said, "We respect their right to
be wrong!"
