Steve Eskow takes a run at Dave Cormier, attracts my ire, and ignites a raft of comments. And it is worth stating again that the blog is not a formal essay, you are not expected to put the entire background of your (and others') thought into a literature review preceding your few paragraphs, and attacking a post for what's missing, rather than what's there, is cheap criticism. "It is easy to extract one paragraph and present it without that context as overly sweeping generalization. It is a freshman mistake to do so."
