Hi a. I've followed you around HN for a while. I can count at least a dozen times where I've begun to write a comment about one of your comments. Really. So it's a strange honor to see you responding to me.
Anyway, you drive me mad, and I'd be very willing to have a public debate about pretty much anything with you, provided it was teleconferenced.
I've read the Unz article start to finish thrice as it was recommended to me by a dear friend, fellow semite (though he's mostly Mizrahi, and I'm largely Ashkenazi) and recent H grad. It's like a big turd taken after a visit to the cinema -- a pile of crap with kernels of truth in its midst.
I agree that our current college selection process is not ideal nor Pareto efficient, but I reject Unz's suggestions on how to reform them as well as the real nature of the problem.
If you'd like to have a long and serious debate on Unz, let's do it somewhere other than in this thread. How's a month from now? I need some time to prepare.
