Baffling Reader Correspondence of the Week January 6, 2012, 1:05 pm In this past week's Ethicist column, Edith Palmer of Brooklyn explained why her political differences with David Koch kept her from taking her granddaughter, Rachel, to see a production of "The Nutcracker" that he sponsored. Some readers applauded her choice, others ridiculed it. This reader, quoting the last to lines of my column, argues ... well, I'm not quite sure what he argued. He declines to elaborate. A sly (in your head) rotten slur on gays in general and on Tchaikovsky in particular! Maybe the Devil would take Koch to bed, if that's your worry.
