>I'm reminded of a saying in literary circles: "Reviewers are usually
nasty because most of them
>are unsuccessful authors themselves."

"Those who can write, write; those who can't write, teach, those who
can;t teach, become reviewers".

Notable exceptions: The Algonquians.

 - Brooks, a Dorothy Parker fan
