Let me think about that . The letter, certainly - it's mine and I'm fine with you sharing it . But I'll have to see wrt the response (if I do indeed get one). I mean, on the one hand, the question addresses what he's publicly teaching, so it's kind of inherently the thing you'd not mind people sharing, and I don't think I'd have an issue with sharing it with a friendly audience. But sharing it to a critical audience...idk. Of course, I'm planning to share the substance of the response here, which is much like having it on your site, and idk if there's a) much difference between sharing the exact words and sharing my impression of the exact words, and b) if it's not just more fair and respectful to let him speak in his own words instead of my interpretation of his words. (Otoh, my interpretation of his words instead of his own gives him room to argue I didn't represent him fairly - gives him some distance.)

Oh, idk, ideally I'd get a response, ask if I could share it on a critical site in its entirely, and he'd say yes, and the whole thing would be completely aboveboard. Otherwise I'll have to see, I guess - thoughts about the ethics of it are welcome .
