As I see it, her response (and she can CMIIAW!) was basically a rant triggered
by issues you raised. You just happened to be the one to set it off. I
recognize it because at one time or another I have agreed with everything
she wrote-- okay, maybe not everything-- I LIKE Martha Stewart! :-) But I
don't think she meant it as a formal rebuttal to what you specifically said,
and I think it is useless to respond to what she wrote point by point as at
least one person has tried to do.
BTW time and age do make it a bit easier to shoulder the boulder...
