JC had a go at Atkinson, possibly on the Harker thread that came before this one, for the sin of writing stuff including words JC did not understand (or the associated concepts presumably), which put off people who bought a festschrift-related collection of pieces and found Atkinson's at the front. JC seems to regard this use of big words as an insult to the source singers and at one point if I remember aright stated he never read such stuff in solidarity.

Unfortunately, as explained previously, by more than one poster, JC has undermined his own credibility and I for one would never take anything he said as reliable.
