Let me get this straight. Y Combinator claims the right to assemble a compendium of all of my comments, change 20% of them to include offhand remarks about how much I despise gays and Muslims and adore poor grammar and Microsoft, title it "The Wisdom and Folly of dTal", bind it in hardback, and sell it?
