You recently extended an invita- tion in your very interesting -"Comment" column for readers to write anonymously and rip a piece off the industry, here and there. I am accepting your invita- tion. My first point of contention is the letter from Allan Mosher re- garding RPM being "toilet paper in extreme cases". I would like to disagree. Even in extreme cases, RPM isn't as good as the average programmers tissue -like playlist which makes for much better toilet paper. Programming in Canada has reached a low point. It is "void" and the we rd is an adjective and a noun. Take that as you will. Mr. Mosher is radical in his con- demnation, but offers no remedy. What alternatives to MOT does he offer. I would like to pick it up exactly where he left it.
