You've offered up
excuses why you (or anybody) might be sympathetic to her situation. That's fine. But they're not valid
reasons why she should get a free pass on the false accusations of piracy—which again... is the single thing with which I take issue. I'm certainly not one who's advocating any kind of boycott (in fact I'm
sure I'll read more of her books), I just think she needs to be a big girl and admit she was wrong to call the Fifth Imperium a pirate site (however long ago the statements might have been made). It's what adults
do when they screw up and wish to maintain integrity.
