Mr. Brisbane: Up Close and Personal

Well, here is my email.  My op-ed writer has yet to email me back; however I am still hoping for a Christmas miracle, since he is the public editor of the New York Times and all...
Dear Mr. Brisbane,
Hello!   My name is Haley Craig and I am a junior at Roncalli High School in Greenwood, IN.  I am currently following your op-ed articles in the New York Times for a blogging project I have in an AP Language class.  I just blogged about your lastest article, "Readers With Plenty to Say."  The assignment was to "shape your argument" stating your claim, concession, and supporting points.  I was just wondering if there were any other issues you have with the complaints made online.  Do people really always want something better?  How has becoming an editor changed your view of the public?  Can your position be a little overwhelming?  Do you have any advice on writing and blogging? 
I'm sure your always busy so thanks for your time! :) 
Haley Craig
