Such a warm and friendly invitation to debate: This post made it to the first page on Hacker News. Some of the comments have been great and informative. Some comments on HN and here on my blog have been down right idiotic. Some people have made false assumptions and some I am convinced didn’t even read what I wrote. Either way, I appreciate all the people who took their time to comment on the post. I wish I had time to read any farther, but I've suddenly remembered a vitally important prior engagement.
