It cannot be a valid response if he didn't read the book.  He is criticizing
without knowing what he's criticizing, therefore his opinion is not valid.  As
Harlan said, you're not entitled to your opinion, you're entitled to your
*informed* opinion.  If he didn't bother to get informed, to just slag off the
book without actually reading it, his opinion is not valid, I don't care what
his country code is.  That's not a justification for not doing your homework.
