I've seen today what might be good Brussels Sprouts. These are made of chocolate.

Jon, my love, it has been there for the last 30 or so years.
This language discussion reminds me of parents who take their kids out to eat and let them make all kinds of noise or run around. What ever happened to the days where parents either didn't take out the kids or if the kids acted up, they took the kids outside until they behaved?

God, I love irony. The dash of karma is icing on the cake!

One should always be very careful when telling someone thems botched a sentence.

Cola is generic for any cola including Coke & Pepsi. Coke is not generic for Pepsi. Coke is the shorthand for Coca-Cola. Pepsi has no shorthand because Pepsi is a small enough word.
Down here pretty much everyone says coke not cola. Unless they are talking about RC cola. It's a regional thing.

So what's the best way to tell a self-published author that the book is no good?

That has nothing to do with moderating actions. It has to do with a self-published eBook being lousy.

I have included the words you quoted in your post in Harry's quote of your post. I hope that makes things clear.

A bit part of my reading is done in public transport, train stations, and bus stops. If I had to read on a phone, especially during the summer, outside, I think I'd rather listen to music.

The bigger screen, readability in bright light, and a long battery life while doing it, are the main reasons why I have an e-reader.
