I would put matters the other
way around. It is not that I, as one
citizen, disagree with the official
decision in the matter of Green
Springs. The point is rather that the
decision was taken in disregard of
the facts, and maintained in
disagreement with the expressed
opinions of all qualified persons in
Virginia, not to speak of many
national authorities. In this respect
time has already proven me right.
I would be extremely
disappointed to have to interpret
your letter as a refusal to discuss
the matter in person. In my own
experience I have always found that
a strong position need have no fear
of adversaries.
