I'm one of those few message board posters who likes Tramel's writing.
That being said, I'd really rather just read what he has to say. Why do publications feel the need to turn writers into video personalities? Berry doesn't have a face for television, nor a voice for radio. He reads his own writing and it sounds affected. He is skilled, however, at writing interesting prose. Wish they'd just leave it at that, or at least give us the choice to see the video, or read the text. /rant
