Neither comes across very well via the written word. I'm not sure what that guy is trying to say. I didn't even read that piece he was referring to until it was posted. I'm curious about his point, whatever it is, and I encourage him to try again. However, I've mostly given up trying to figure out what people think they read. Meh, Contraversy is good for business.

If there's a cogent thought hidden somewhere in your comment, try to find it first before you inflict senseless words on other readers. anonymous, congratulations on making no sense at all.
