To whom it may concern (and to Bob Atkins)---
The posts I have seen originated by Bob Atkins and placed on the
rec.photo news groups have been models of helpfulness, directness,
and accuracy. They have been full of useful information, and have
been above the level of pettiness that can sometimes occur in these
lively groups. A willful trouble-maker named Martin Tai has seen
fit to extend his fun beyond insults by making threats to Bob Atkins.
I trust that this e-mail will put in context whatever M. T. attempts
to do in carrying out his threats.
