Actually, it's "compromise." And given that you weren't party to the
discussion, any assumptions you might want to make about what points we
missed are utterly and completely off base. The fact is, "no book" isn't
and wasn't one of the expected outcomes of the discussion. If Mitch wants
to choose not to publish a book at this time as a result of the outcome of
whatever discussion he had with us, that's his choice. We certainly didn't
tell him he couldn't; in fact, we can't tell him he can't.
The simple fact is that if party A wants party B to provide something of
value, party A should expect to provide something of equivalent or greater
value to party B in return. Sometimes, that doesn't happen. That's basic
economics.
