You could challenge me by responding to the serious issues I raise about being Chosen as an 'expert' on Medium and exactly how you as BIG BOSS and your editorial team (now reduced) at the platform determine this accolade and special status.

As I stated,

"We are all experts."

I am quite experienced with ad hominem attacks for my political views but this is a first for my views on being a common or garden writer and the dissemination of my extremely varied subject matter. Sticks and stones eh?

At least you did respond. For that I salute you.

But Tony? (I feel we are on our way to being friends) can you answer my points.

I notice in other responses to those criticising the new new Medium (thats a Labour Party joke) from a Corbynista that you do tend to punch a little under the belt. My pieces on possibly the best Time Travel show ever made (yes I know that is a huge decleration) has absolutely nothing to do with my writing upon this platform for the last 3/4 years.

Finally and I have only once again scratched the surface in responding to you, I would like to bring out another of my grandmothers responses (during her long eventful time and many would argue she was an expert on life) as something for you to ponder upon,

"If it aint broke, then why fix it?"

All yours mate.
