Although I agree with many things that the author says, I wouldn't say practically impossible. I, myself, have bought bitcoins and set up wallets for two friends and a family member, regular people as the author would say. After seriously warning them, and letting them know that chances are that they will lose all their investment, they transferred me the money and I gave them the instructions for the wallet. However, I believe that the more the bitcoin economy grows the easier will be for people to acquire them. I also hope that people will start spending them, instead of just keeping them as an investment.
