They are absolving themselves of any criticism by only replying to the odd e-mail.

I don't care what Rush has to say; I want to hear it from the engine drivers, not the oil rag.

In what way are they absolving themselves of any criticism?

And I think you will find it is more than just the odd e-mail Andy Appleby replies to.

E-mail him with your concerns and let us all know how you get on please.
