Note: The Iconoclast View is a place on the Icon where we post opinion pieces. The following email came to us recently - unsoliciated from the Icon owner's brother, Rudi Steiner.
It fits in the opinion category and may help to explain what the Icon is and is not. We offer it here for viewers' enjoyment.
