Wow, look how brave I can be when I don't realise the guy who wrote the piece I'm criticising is present...
I had no idea Roderick wrote Mythic Europe - maybe I should pay attention to who writes these things. On the other hand, given Roderick's involvement, I find it even more disappointing. Given the quality I know he is capable of...
