He did put him in the category of "elitist programmers with weblogs".  That's a direct 
personal
attack in my book - not just a critique on the original article.

Buy, hey, what are a few personal insults anyway?  If you want to learn real debating 
I can
recommend this [1] by a couple of list regulars.  Now that's well-reasoned, rational, 
scientific
debate.  Or see how real philosophers do it [2].

Anyway, perhaps he just mis-typed "elite programmer with weblog".  That's ergonomic 
keyboards for
you. :-)

I would agree but that would rule out most of the best discussions on this mailing 
list.  Go on
mention deterministic finalisation - I dare you.  ;-)
