- cynicalkane 17y agoMaybe he's "right" in some sense, but I can't stand this guy. That level of anger and hate against Strunk and White seems strange and unwarranted. I think people shouldn't preach about style until they can write something that's not unpleasant to read. Contrast this to White himself, who is quite enjoyable.
