Not at all. My problem with Xah Lee is that he is abusing the Usenet as a personal BLOG. He has a web site to post these articles and he can certainly put up a discussion board there if he wants a vigorous discussion of his ideas. It's worse. He does not even respond to questions directly posed to him in the thread of his "articles". Just imagine if every blogger on the Internet started using Usenet instead and cross-posting at that. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
