Yes, I think that probably is what I was thinking of. The "from the
publisher's desk" is what I think of as the editorial, and the date,
Jan 94, is about right, I think.

Actually, I went off HT earlier, and wasn't a subscriber when the
timeline issue came up. I also read the big book by Sivaya
Subramuniaswami on Saivism, when it first came out.
Incidentally, I was completely unaware that HT ever published any letter
from me. I don't think I wrote to them ... oh, wait a minute, I did
send a bit of email, which never got acknowledged, so I assumed it had
fallen into some big hole in the net. That must be it. I certainly
didn't intend my note for publication! Oh dear. Was it very strident?
Best wishes,
Dominik
