People say the funniest things.

In the latest Lefsetz Letter, Bob Lefsetz, incredulous at how little play the new Antony & the Johnsons disc has gotten in the US, wonders:

I can’t speculate on the first part of the question, although I have some suspicions.

Regarding the portion after the comma, I can only guess that this is one of them “rhetorical” questions I’ve been hearing about.
