As upset as I got with Steve for that long-ago poem (he'll remember),
I, too, always read all the way through his rants; and I do it mostly
because, yes, the writing is truly impressive.

Steve,
I actually read all the way through each of your rants, and always
with awe, because of
the amount of time & energy you spend on them,
the perfect punctuation & grammar, and
the fact that each time you seem to be pursuing the rant instead of
other programmatic (read: money-making) activities.

Articles on big thinkers like Dyson get me all nostalgic sometimes.
And here I thought only Nick Thompson read my rants all of the way
through (and then mostly to find modal language).
I'm sure Doug at least skims them for Punny opportunities, but I
figured everyone else just glazed over and hit <Next>!
Back to the grindage...
