In hindsight, I should have perhaps expected that people would interpret this
word in the "negative" manner, and phrased my comment differently.  I work in
the English department at a university, where "criticism" is used to refer to
any sort of critical observation or remark, not just ones counter to the
original author's point.

It's been terribly busy dealing with the truly massive amount of work dealing
with Hans Gerber et al. at the moment, so I'll beg off replying to the other
things you had to say.
