I apologize to all those who were offended ... yes, I’m not entirely outside the circle of academia myself (among which that sort of criticism is not unheard of, actually). I probably might not have flown off the handle so much if Eppstein hadn’t ended his review with something that sounded so snippy and dismissive, and it wasn’t so late. Daniel Case
