What a nice thing to say! Thank you! :-) I think Glenn Greenwald is a wonderful journalist who really revealed a hugely meaningful story. Maybe not the story of the decade overall, but perhaps the story of the decade when it comes to computer and information security and privacy. The thing is, I agree with you almost all the time. But you alienate me (and I think others too) because of the ruthlessness in which you express yourself. Even well-known members of a community do not obtain a license to talk down to others. I think it's super nice of you to be this considerate and I think this is a solid contribution to improving the mood of this list. I hope "x z" also appreciates this clarification! Hurray for Jake!
