The Gladwell-bashing bandwagon is getting a little top-heavy. I think society ought to remind itself once in a while that not all talents and gifts are innate but are mostly products of immense focus, dedication, and even luck. Gladwell has stated that the purpose of his work isn't to get people to agree, but to get people to think. To that end, bravo, Gladwell. This HN'er appreciates your work.
